HC Deb 27 November 1951 vol 494 cc1094-5
7. Mr. Douglas Houghton

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether in the forthcoming review of housing subsidies he will consider granting a special additional subsidy to local authorities compelled by the nature of local terrain to build houses on difficult and inaccessible sites.

Mr. H. Macmillan

This is one of the matters which will be considered in that review.

Mr. Houghton

Does the Minister appreciate the importance of this matter to all local housing authorities in the Sowerby division of the West Riding of Yorkshire?

Mr. Macmillan

Yes, Sir.
