HC Deb 16 July 1931 vol 255 c755
42. Mr. LEES

asked the Minister of Health how many houses have been built by the Repton Rural District Council in the parish of Mickleover, Derbyshire, during the years 1926, 1927, 1928, 1929 and 1930?

Mr. GREENWOOD

No houses were built in this parish in the years mentioned.

43. Mr. LEES

asked the Minister of Health how many houses have been declared unfit for human habitation in the parish of Mickleover, Derbyshire; and if the Repton Rural District Council are arranging to build any houses to replace them?

Mr. GREENWOOD

I understand that one demolition Order has been made. The council propose to erect 12 houses in the parish.

Mr. LEES

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that there is overcrowding in unfit houses in that area, and would it not be well to send an inspector down to inspect the houses?

Mr. GREENWOOD

If my hon. Friend will give me particulars, I will consider them.
