HC Deb 17 March 1936 vol 310 c234
71. Miss WARD

asked the Minister of Health how many local authorities have not yet commenced a survey of overcrowding in their areas?

Mr. SHAKESPEARE

Local authorities were required to complete the survey of their areas by 1st April, and all the information which my right hon. Friend has suggests that the work will be done by that date. My right hon. Friend has no reason to suppose that there is any authority who has not yet started the work.
