HC Deb 22 November 1928 vol 222 c1900
46. Sir HUGH LUCAS-TOOTH

asked the Minister of Health how many rural district councils borrowed too much money under the Housing Act from the Public Works Loan Board for their actual requirements; in how many cases the Ministry has insisted on the repayment of interest upon the surplus; and how much the total of such interest amounts to?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

There is no summarised information available in the desired form and to compile it from the departmental records over a period of years would involve considerable labour. If my hon. Friend has any special case in mind I shall be glad to furnish him with any particulars he may desire in regard to it.
