HC Deb 06 February 1930 vol 234 c2084
92. Mr. BUTLER

asked the Minister of Health upon what approximate date he proposes to announce his policy for rural housing?

Mr. GREENWOOD

I am unable, at the present time, to add anything to the reply given to the hon. Member on the 23rd January on this subject.

Sir K. WOOD

Can the right hon. Gentleman say when his proposals will be formally introduced, so that the text of the Bill will be available to Members of this House?

Mr. GREENWOOD

I cannot give a specific date, but I can promise hon. Members that they will have the proposals well in advance of the Debate that will take place.

Sir K. WOOD

Shall we have it in a week or a fortnight?

Mr. SMITHERS

If I send particulars of the Nash system, will the right hon. Gentleman consider them?

Mr. GREENWOOD

Certainly.
