HC Deb 23 June 1947 vol 439 c7
24. Mr. Piratin

asked the Minister of Works whether, in granting licences for building repairs, consideration is given to the announcement made by representatives of the Ministry of Health to local authorities that the aim was an allocation of licences in the ratio, in terms of value, of 60/40 to the advantage of housing as against non-housing repairs.

Mr. Key

Yes, Sir.
