HC Deb 11 June 1936 vol 313 cc370-1
27. Mr. JOEL

asked the Minister of Health the programme of the technical sub-committee of the Central Advisory Housing Committee who are now visiting different towns in the country to familiarise themselves with housing conditions?

Sir K. WOOD

The Central Purposes and Technical Sub-Committe of the Central Housing Advisory Committee have decided that some of their meetings should be made the occasions for visits to housing estates in various cities. Following this arrangement, the sub-committee have visited estates of the London County Council, and estates at Birmingham, Dudley, Liverpool and Manchester. I am not aware that any further visits are contemplated at present.

Sir J. NALL

Will the Committee visit vacant sites which have not been properly cleared?

Sir K. WOOD

Perhaps my hon. Friend will be good enough to send me some suggestions.
