HC Deb 15 December 1959 vol 615 cc153-4W
Mr. Braine

asked the Secretary of State for War what provision is being made for new War Department houses on Foulness Island to meet the need of the Department's local employees and agricultural tenants; and what steps are being taken to put the existing houses, owned by his Department, into a good state of repair and to provide a modern sewerage system.

Mr. Soames

Twelve houses are to be built and twelve modernised during the coming year. I am writing to my hon. Friend about housing conditions on the island.
