§ 59. Commander Maitlandasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs if he is aware that delays in the supply of bricks are creating considerable difficulties in the Spilsby region of Lincolnshire and are causing unemployment; and what steps he has taken to improve the situation.
§ Mr. H. BrookeI received a letter from the Spilsby Rural District Council the day after my hon. Friend put down his Question, and I am asking the council for further information. I have had no other complaints from this part of the country and, as regards unemployment locally, vacancies for building tradesmen far exceed the number of unemployed.
