HC Deb 05 May 1931 vol 252 c215W
Miss RATHBONE

asked the Minister of Health what items went to make up the 10s. 6d. estimated by the Ministry as the full economic rent, exclusive of rates, of a municipal house costing £400 without Exchequer or rate subsidy?

Mr. GREENWOOD

The rent mentioned would he applicable in the case of a house costing £400 financed by a 5 per cent. loan repayable in 60 years, allowing sinking fund on a 4 per cent. basis and about £5 10s. per annum for repairs.
