Mr. GREENWOODasked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that local authorities in colliery districts have withheld the payment of agreed subsidies for houses on the grounds that tenants are not immediately available; and whether he will take steps to communicate with local authorities in developing colliery districts on the matter?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINI am not aware of the difficulties to which the hon. Member refers, but if he has in mind any particular cases, and will furnish me with particulars, I shall be happy to make inquiries.
