§ Major Spenceasked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many houses have been reconditioned under the Housing (Rural Workers) Act; and if he will give this total number under the following headings: those reconditioned by local authorities, those reconditioned by owner-occupiers and those reconditioned by landlords.
§ Mr. BuchananThe number of houses reconstructed in Scotland under these Acts is 32,929, of which 152 were reconstructed by local authorities. I am calling for a return from local authorities of the number of houses reconstructed by owner-occupiers and landlords respectively. Although this information may take some 177W time to compile I shall send it to the hon. and gallant Member as soon as it is available.
