HC Deb 16 December 1919 vol 123 c261W
Mr. LUNN

asked the Minister of Health whether, with a view to collecting information bearing on the housing question, he will instruct local authorities to compile a list of houses in their areas which are only partially occupied, or are occupied only for a portion of the year, with the names and addresses of the tenants or landlords?

Dr. ADDISON

I will consider the suggestion of my hon. Friend who will no doubt be aware of the powers which local authorities possess in such matters under the recent Housing, Town Planning, etc., Act.
