HC Deb 13 February 1934 vol 285 c1750
31. Mr. ANSTRUTHER-GRAY

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland the number of State-aided houses erected in Scotland in 1931, 1932 and 1933?

Mr. SKELTON

The number of State-aided houses erected by local authorities and private enterprise in Scotland in 1931, 1932 and 1933 was 10,654, 15,818 and 20,915, respectively.

Mr. ANSTRUTHER-GRAY

Does my hon. Friend expect this figure to be exceeded in 1934?

Mr. SKELTON

I think it is too early to say that.

Miss HORSBRUGH

Will the hon. Gentleman be satisfied if the figure is not exceeded in 1934?

Mr. SKELTON

I am always hoping that each year will be better than the last in every matter.
