HC Deb 16 June 1927 vol 207 cc1198-9W
Mr. FORREST

asked the Minister of Health the number of houses now being built by private enterprise for working-class families only, indicating in each case whether they are receiving the subsidy or not?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I have no information as to the intended occupancy of houses which are under construction by private enterprise. I may mention, however, that 45,495 subsidy houses were under construction in England and Wales by private enterprise on the 1st instant, but statistics are not available as to the number under construction without State assistance.
