§ Mr. Jewsonasked the Minister of Health if he is a ware that Winchester R.D.C., desiring to build 12 cottages, had to prepare 408 plans; and if he will take steps to prevent such requirements.
§ Mr. WillinkI am informed that the council prepared identical sets of six plans and working drawings for each of four sites on which cottages were to be built. These were supplied to the 17 contractors who had offered to tender, in order that they might know what work was involved and so have a basis for tendering.
