HC Deb 16 November 1933 vol 281 cc1126-7W
Mr. LIDDALL

asked the Minister of Health if he can give an estimate of the number of houses built without State assistance during the year ended 30th September, 1933, which were to let, and to let for rents of 12s. 6d. per week, inclusive, or less, respectively?

Sir H. YOUNG

I regret that no statistics are available to enable me to reply to the hon. Member.

Sir F. FREMANTLE

asked the Minister of Health the number of houses completed during the year ended 30th September, 1933, under each of the several Housing Acts since the War; the number completed during the same year without public financial assistance; and the totals under the same headings erected since the War?

Sir H. YOUNG

The following statement gives the desired information.

in regard to rents owing from tenants on London County Council housing estates, and the housing estates of other local authorities?

Sir H. YOUNG

I regret that this information is not generally available. I am informed, however, that the amount of irrecoverable arrears of rent on the estates of the London County Council in respect of the year 1932–33 was £4,488, representing 0.18 per cent, of the total rentals.
