HC Deb 23 March 1933 vol 276 cc485-6
43. Mr. HICKS

asked the Minister of Health when sanction is likely to be given to the Greenwich council for the housing scheme submitted in June, 1932?

Sir H. YOUNG

I am afraid I cannot identify this proposal. A proposal submitted by this authority on the 21st July, 1932, has been approved and the only proposal at present before me from this authority was submitted on the 6th instant.

Mr. HICKS

Can the Minister identify the particular scheme? Am I to understand that the reply refers to a slum clearance of 13 houses which I was informed was submitted by the Greenwich council in June, 1932?

Sir H. YOUNG

As I say, there was one proposal made in July, 1932, which may possibly be the one which the hon. Gentleman has in mind, that has already been approved. The only other one at present before me was submitted on the 6th instant.
