HC Deb 18 February 1926 vol 191 cc2148-9W
Viscountess ASTOR

asked the Minister of Health if he can state the names and localities of slum districts that have been reconditioned by private enterprise, and so made fit for habitation; and whether he is considering legislation to provide the capital so as to facilitate the repair of houses in slum areas by local authorities?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I regret that I have not the necessary information to answer the first part of the Noble Lady's question. As regards the second part, I am not yet in a position to make a statement with regard to future housing legislation.
