HC Deb 17 June 1948 vol 452 cc74-5W
79. Mr. Butcher

asked the Minister of Health why he has refused a building licence for an inhabitant of Sutterton, whose house has been condemned by the local authority as unfit for human habitation and in respect of which the surveyor to the rural district council has certified that he cannot accept any responsibility in the event of injury to the occupants.

Mr. Bevan

As the hon. Member has been informed by letter, the demolition order does not require vacation of the house until 31st December. No request has been made by the occupant for new accommodation.
