HC Deb 21 July 1930 vol 241 cc1753-4W
Mr. HORE-BELISHA

asked the Minister of Health the number of houses that were built in Devonport and Plymouth during the 12 months ended

by the hon. Member so far as it relates to houses being erected with the aid of Exchequer subsidy. I have no information as to the number of houses being erected without such assistance. As the hon.
