HC Deb 25 May 1944 vol 400 c951W
Mr. Chater

asked the Minister of Health if there will be any order of priorities in the allocation of prefabricated houses; and what will be the position of ex-Service men who have married during the war, have been discharged before its Conclusion and are unable to find accommodation to start homes of their own.

Mr. Willink

As made clear in reply to previous Questions, no statement on details can be made until the prototype house has been approved. As regards the last part of the Question, I would remind my hon. Friend that I have delegated to local authorities the power to requisition empty houses in order to accommodate persons who are inadequately housed.
