HC Deb 14 February 1945 vol 408 cc241-2W
Sir R. Glyn

asked the Minister of Works whether it is proposed to compile a priority list of works to be carried out after the conclusion of the war in Europe, so that plans for the repair and in some cases the rebuilding of hospitals can be proceeded with and thus remove the difficulties due to uncertainties as to availability of labour and material.

Mr. Sandys

Provisional estimates have been made of the amount of building labour likely to be available for different categories of work, including those mentioned in the Question. Priorities within each category will be settled by the Government Department principally concerned, with the advice in appropriate cases of local authorities.
