§ 94. Mr. Longdenasked the Minister of Health if his attention has been called to the widespread belief, even among building operatives themselves, that house building will come to a standstill after the lapse of about a year; and if he will reassure the public by issuing a full and up-to-date statement on the matter.
§ Mr. BevanNo, and I see no reason for this misapprehension. I would refer to the statement made in the House by my right hon. and learned Friend the Minister for Economic Affairs on 23rd October, and I am sending my hon. Friend a copy of the Circular which I issued to local authorities on 29th October.
