HC Deb 18 April 1923 vol 162 c2039
53. Mr. WILLEY

asked the Minister of Health whether, since all houses subsidised under the Government scheme have to he completed by 1st January, 1926, he can give any idea of the number which he anticipates will be so constructed in the period, assuming that the fullest possible effort be made to take advantage of the facilities afforded?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I do not think it practicable to make an estimate of any value. I may say, however, that the average number of working-class houses built during the last four years was approximately 50,000 a year.
