§ 93. Mr. Gammansasked the Minister of Health if, in view of the fact that the loss to the taxpayer on each aluminium house averages £1,160, he will state the number of houses which have been ordered; and what is expected to be the total loss of this programme.
§ Mr. BevanThe total number of aluminium houses ordered was 54,500. Assuming a net cost to the Exchequer of £1,160 per house, the total net cost of the programme would be £63,220,000.
