HC Deb 16 June 1947 vol 438 c1573
31. Mr. Christopher Shawcross

asked the Minister of Supply whether he is aware that the tenants of the M.A.P. bungalows at Page Moss, Huyton, are threatening to strike against their rents which they regard as extortionate; what steps he is taking to meet their grievances; and if he will receive a deputation.

Mr. Wilmot

This matter is at present under consideration. I am fully aware of the position, and I do not think it necessary for me to receive a deputation.

Mr. Shawcross

While thanking my right hon. Friend for his reply, may I ask him whether he is not also aware that all the M.A.P. tenants in my constituency are in a similar position? Will he take steps to put all on the same basis?

Mr. Wilmot

We are doing our best.
