HC Deb 05 June 1945 vol 411 c713W
Mr. Bull

asked the Minister of Health if he will take steps to secure that local authorities reserve a proportion of the accommodation which they have power to allot for members of His Majesty's Regular Forces who, through living in barracks or married quarters before the war, can establish no residential qualification on which to base their claim for housing.

Mr. Willink

Following discussions with the associations of local authorities I intend shortly to issue to local authorities a circular (of which I will send my hon. Friend a copy) which will contain guidance for them on the question of applications for accommodation from ex-Service men who can establish no residential qualification on which to apply for council housing.
