§ Mr. Tom Smithasked the Minister of Health if he is aware that some local authorities have housing sites which will necessitate building on concrete rafts owing to mining subsidence; and, in such cases, if he will consider bearing the additional cost nationally.
§ Mr. BevanYes, Sir. I am aware of the fact stated. I am not yet in a position to make any statement in regard to the terms and conditions of post-war housing subsidy, but this is one of the considerations which will have to be borne in mind.
