HC Deb 02 May 1929 vol 227 c1697
14. Mr. KELLY

asked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that, in spite of the request of the Cobham Parish Council, the Epsom Rural District Council has refused to build any more houses; and whether, in view of the admitted shortage of houses in the district, he will make inquiries into the matter?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I have not received any representations from the Cobham Parish Council on the subject referred to. According to the latest return furnished by the Epsom Rural District Council, 16 houses are now in course of erection by them, and they have erected or have in course of erection a total number of 522 houses, of which 84 are in the parish of Cobham. I see, therefore, no reason for making special inquiries in the matter.
