HC Deb 14 March 1933 vol 275 c1780
41. Mr. ROBINSON

asked the Minister of Health whether he has any information as to the principal classes of foreign materials which local authorities find it necessary to use, especially in regard to schemes of housing and slum clearance?

Captain HUDSON

The Ministry of Health have urged local authorities to make use, to the utmost extent practicable, of goods and materials of home and Empire origin, and any right hon. Friend has reason to believe that this practice is being very generally observed, but no general information of the kind suggested is supplied to him.
