§ 37. Mr. KIRKWOODasked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many 1930 Act houses have been completed in Johnstone and Kilsyth; how many are in course of construction; what are the rents charged for the different classes of houses in the respective burghs; and will he consider the advisability of urging other towns to proceed with schemes similar to those of Johnstone and Kilsyth?
§ Mr. SKELTONI am sending the hon. Member a statement giving the information asked for in the first three parts of the question. As regards the last part, the Department of Health keep constantly under review the housing situation throughout Scotland and draw the attention of the local authorities to the conditions in their areas wherever that appears to be necessary. I should add that the response of local authorities is in general satisfactory.
