HC Deb 17 May 1949 vol 465 c260
50. Mr. McFarlane

asked the President of the Board of Trade how many prefabricated housing units have been exported to Eire or any European country during the last 12 months; and how many under the headings of temporary and permanent, respectively.

The Secretary for Overseas Trade (Mr. Bottomley)

Prefabricated housing units are not distinguished separately in the export statistics. I understand, however, that no applications have been received in the last 12 months for an allocation of timber for exports of housing units to the areas mentioned.
