HC Deb 07 March 1929 vol 226 c553
30. Mr. HARRIS

asked the Minister of Health whether he has any information as to the number of working-class houses converted into factories and workshops in the County of London during the last four years; and if so, whether he can state the numbers?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

No statistics are available on the point to which the hon. Member refers.

Mr. HARRIS

Will the Minister of Health try to get some information under this heading? Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that, as a result of the wholesale erection of factories and workshops the number of which is continually increasing, overcrowding remains as bad as ever?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

The problem will require a very great deal of investigation.

Forward to
