HC Deb 15 February 1926 vol 191 c1504
3. Mr. WARDLAW-MILNE

asked the Under-Secrtary of State for India what proportion of the new chawls built by the Bombay Government Development Department are still standing empty; what is the average rent per room of these tenements; and what is the reason given for the public not availing themselves of the opportunities thus offered to them for housing?

Earl WINTERTON

I have no recent information on the subject of the chawls in Bombay, but will make inquiry.
