HC Deb 18 May 1939 vol 347 cc1597-8
42. Mr. Denville

asked the Minister of Health whether tenders or inquiries were received or invited from contractors on the North-East Coast for the erection of new camps, permanent or otherwise?

Mr. Elliot

I understand that the National Camps Corporation, Limited, invited tenders from three firms on the North-East Coast, but none was received.

Mr. Denville

Can the right hon. Gentleman give the date?

Mr. Elliot

I certainly could not give it now, but I am perfectly willing to discuss the matter with my hon. Friend.
