HC Deb 26 November 1931 vol 260 c506
67. Lieut.-Colonel FREMANTLE

asked the Minister of Health if he will consider, as promised by his predecessor on 30th July last, some way of amalgamating the returns compiled with regard to houses occupied, erected, or reconditioned, and the houses and populations dealt with in clearance and improvement areas during the year, and of issuing the result in such a way as to reduce the need for frequent questions in Parliament and to provide the most useful guide to progress made and needed?

Sir H. YOUNG

I will certainly consider this question and shall he glad if it is possible to secure my hoe, and gallant Friend's objects in the way proposed.

Earl WINTERTON

If in the event of his doing so, will my right hon. Friend give favourable consideration to putting them under two headings, under "Reconditioning" and under "Improvement Areas," showing those done voluntarily and those done as a result of an order by the local authority?

Sir H. YOUNG

I will certainly take my right hon. Friend's suggestion into consideration.
