HC Deb 29 July 1930 vol 242 c304W
Mr. SIMON

asked the Minister of Health whether he is aware of the difficulty of measuring the overcrowding throughout the country owing to the lack of information as to the number of bedrooms in houses; and whether he will cause such information to be given in the 1931 Census?

Miss LAWRENCE

It does not seem to my right hon. Friend that the difficulty to which the hon. Member refers would be mitigated by the obtaining of the information he mentions, and my right hon. Friend does not think it desirable to act upon the suggestion made in the last part of the question.
