HC Deb 28 February 1946 vol 419 c416W
Mr. Bossom

asked the Minister of Health how many contracts for municipal houses and how many licences for private enterprise houses have been issued for Southend, Bristol, Hull and Maidstone.

Mr. D. J. Williams

asked the Minister of Health what house-building programmes have been submitted by the Pontardawe Rural District Council, the Neath Rural District Council and the Neath Borough Council, respectively; and what schemes have been approved by his Department.

Mr. Bevan

I would ask the hon. Members to await Appendix B to the Housing Return which will be published next week. This Appendix will contain details of the progress made in each local authority area.

Mr. Bossom

asked the Minister of Health whether, in his monthly progress reports on housing, he will give the number of permanent houses and temporary houses completed and actually occupied.

Mr. Bevan

As the hon. Member will have seen, the Return contains statistics of permanent and temporary houses completed. Statistics of actual occupation are not available.
