§ 34. Major H. EVANSasked the Minister of Health whether any statement showing the number of men, women and children living in houses scheduled as being insanitary within the county borough of Gateshead has been furnished by that local authority; and, if so, whether he will communicate these details to the House?
§ The MINISTER of HEALTH (Mr. Arthur Greenwood)No such statement has been furnished to me, but I may say that the council have decided to clear, under the Housing Act, 1930, areas containing 2,983 persons.
