§ 96. Sir B. Neven-Spenceasked the Minister of Works how many erected prefabricated houses are still without window glass.
§ Mr. Tomlinson:There is no overall shortage of window glass and the responsibility for obtaining it for prefabricated houses lies with the erection contractors. I am unable to say how many erected houses are waiting for glass, but steps have recently been taken to establish small emergency stocks which can be drawn upon if, for any reason, a contractor is unable to obtain supplies in time through the normal channels.
