§ 43. Mr. EDWARD WILLIAMS (for Dr. SALTER)asked the Minister of Health whether he will reconsider his decision in the matter of sanctioning expenditure toy the Hackney Metropolitan Borough Council of £3,000 for the purchase of a site in Hackney Wick for a branch slipper bath establishment; and whether, in view of the fact that in Hackney Wick few of the houses have baths, the erection of the building may be proceeded with?
§ Mr. E. BROWNA loan of £3,000 for the purchase of the site has been sanctioned in this case. Progress with the baths was deferred in present financial circumstances and the matter will, my right hon. Friend understands, be further considered by the council at a later date. It is not one in regard to which he feels that he can take any special action.
