25. Mr. Baker Whiteasked the Minister of Works the present monthly output of breeze blocks; and what output is required to meet present housing needs.
§ Mr. KeyBreeze is only one of many types of aggregate which, when mixed with cement, forms concrete, and separate figures of the monthly output of breeze blocks are not available. Pre-cast concrete units, including breeze blocks, are 10 alternatives to clay and terra cotta products, and it is, therefore, impossible to isolate the housing requirement for breeze blocks.
§ Sir Waldron SmithersIn view of the urgent need for a large quantity of breeze blocks, will the Minister inquire into the case of Mr. Myron, an ex-Royal Air Force officer, who is making thousands of these blocks, and who has been given notice to quit? He has been put into an impossible position.
§ Mr. KeyIf the hon. Gentleman will send me particulars of the case I will make the necessary inquiries.
