HC Deb 18 February 1924 vol 169 cc1326-7W
Mr. LINFIELD

asked the Minister of Health whether his attention has been called to the condition of some tenement property at Chesterfield visited by the Registrar of the County Court, who reduced the rents of from 9s-12s. to from 1s. 4d.-2s. 2d. per week, and declared that he had never seen human beings penned in such miserable pens, and expressed surprise that they were used for human habitation; and if he intends to take action in the matter?

Mr. WHEATLEY

I have asked the local authority to furnish me with information on the cases to which my hon. Friend refers.
