HC Deb 24 May 1928 vol 217 c2055
33. Mr. WELLOCK

asked the Minister of Health which local authorities have realised the largest reductions in the price of houses in relation to area within the last two and a-half years; and if he will give details?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I regret that I cannot furnish the information desired by the hon. Member. It could only be made available by tabulating costs in detail over a period of 2½ years. This would involve a considerable amount of time and labour, and I do not think that the intrinsic value of the information would warrant the expense involved in obtaining it.
