Mrs. Tate

asked the Minister of Health how many new council houses are available for residents in Bath; and how many applicants are on the waiting list for these houses?

Mr. Elliot

According to a return furnished by the town council at the end of October last, 48 houses had been completed by them since 31st July, 1939, and they were engaged on the completion of a further 416 houses which were under construction when the wax broke out. I am unable to give the information asked for in the second part of the Question.
