§ Colonel DAYasked the Minister of Health whether it is proposed to introduce legislation dealing with slum areas at an early date; and, if so, whether special provisions will be included for the provision of State assistance to poor boroughs, such as Southwark, where the housing conditions are exceptionally bad and the rateable value low?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINI would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the reply which was given to a similar question on this matter by the hon. Member for Gravesend on the 17th instant.
