§ Mr. Bossomasked the Minister of Health whether he will issue a pamphlet similar to his Ministry's Housing Manual, 1944, for the use of local authorities and others, giving information regarding types of temporary houses with different layouts and different suggested colour treatments.
§ Mr. WillinkA memorandum for local authorities containing guidance on layout and other matters connected with temporary houses is in preparation.
§ Sir G. Owenasked the Minister of Health if he will arrange, through the Welsh Board of Health, to have specimens of factory-made houses to be on view at a convenient place in North Wales for inspection by the local housing authorities of the six North Wales counties.
§ Mr. WillinkIn advance of general production, I am afraid it will be economically possible to make only a small number of full-scale timber models available. These will be allocated to a few of the largest towns, of which Cardiff is one.
§ Sir G. Owenasked the Minister of Health if he can now state the cost of the proposed factory-made houses, and the amount of the financial aid for their construction which the Government will make to housing authorities.
§ Mr. WillinkI would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the statements made 1947W in the course of the Second Reading on the Housing (Temporary Accommodation) Bill on 1st August and 26th September.
