HC Deb 23 October 1945 vol 414 cc1958-9W
Mr. Carson

asked the Minister of Works when the temporary houses for the Margate Council's Dane Valley, Garlinge and Westgate-on-Sea housing estates will be delivered; and will he expedite this matter as the sites are ready and waiting.

Mr. Tomlinson

Production of the Uni-Seco central hall type of temporary house allocated to the Margate Council has only recently begun. Deliveries to local authorities will, as a rule, be made in the order in which the sites were handed over. It is not yet possible to give a firm date for the delivery of the houses to Margate but there will be no avoidable delay.
