HC Deb 03 July 1947 vol 439 c1482
3. Mr. Digby

asked the Minister of Health if he is yet in a position to announce the intentions of the Government in regard to the implementation of the recommendations of the Hobhouse Committee on Rural Housing.

Mr. Bevan

No, Sir. But I shall make an announcement before the end of the Session.

Mr. Digby

Could the Minister say, in view of the urgency of this matter, whether he will make an announcement before the Summer Recess?

Mr. Bevan

I said, before the end of then Session, but I hope it will be before the Summer Recess.

Mr. Dumpleton

Will my right hon. Friend bear in mind that the minority report of this Committee would probably receive far greater support?

Mr. Bevan

I am aware of that.
