HC Deb 16 October 1940 vol 365 cc711-2W
Mr. Mander

asked the Lord President of the Council whether he will consider the advisability of including in the work of the building research station for the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research sociological and economic research, and of research on the planning of buildings with a view to a more general treatment of all the problems involved.

Sir J. Anderson

I do not think that there would be justification for attempt- ing to modify the present division of functions between the administrative and the scientific departments.
