§ 81. Mr. Peter Freemanasked the Minister of Health whether he is now in a position to make a statement on the national housing programme for 1947, including the total number of permanent and prefabricated houses that each local authority is hoping to build during the coming year.
§ Mr. BevanIt is my intention to publish a full statement of the national programme and the facts on which it is based with the monthly report for December which will be available for the House at the end of January. As I indicated in my reply to my hon. Friend on 5th December, it will be some little time before each local authority's share can be estimated.
