§ Captain BOWYERasked the Minister of Health whether his attention has been called to the fact that the building grant of £260 due to Mr. Thomas Mortimer, of The Bungalow, Southcott Road, Linslade, Bucks, has not been paid although the house in question was completed by 20th December, 1920; is he aware that this delay is very unjust to Mr. Mortimer and does not act as an incentive to other private builders in the neighbourhood; and will he cause the money to be paid as soon as possible?

§ Dr. ADDISONThe delay in this case was due to the failure of the local authority to supply the necessary particulars. The completed particulars were not received by the Housing Commissioner until the 14th February. The grant was paid to Mr. Mortimer on the 22nd.
