§ 9. Mr. Sorensenasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government the aver age rent now being charged on five-room housing and flats, respectively, in respect of municipal houses whose construction was completed this year in outer London areas; and how this compares with the rentals charged for similar dwellings completed in 1950 and 1955.
§ Mr. H. BrookeI regret that I have not got this particular information.
§ Mr. SorensenWill the Minister try to get this information, which would be extremely illuminating? Will he not try to find out exactly the answer to my Question, which surely is a legitimate Question?
§ Mr. BrookeI have a certain amount of information, but I think perhaps the best thing would be for me to write to the hon. Member and send him the information which I have. [HON. MEMBERS: "No."] I regret to say that the particular information which he requests here is not at this moment available, and I therefore could not publish it.
