HC Deb 26 July 1937 vol 326 cc2671-2W
Lieut.-Commander Fletcher

asked the Minister of Health whether he has come to a decision as to pressing local authorities to provide small bungalows at low rent for aged persons?

Sir K. Wood

I am satisfied that local authorities are well aware of the desirability of providing houses of the type referred to. Up to the end of June, 25,663 houses of this kind had been approved for erection and the authorities have ample power to make such rent rebates as they think desirable.
