HC Deb 17 July 1946 vol 425 c195W
18. Major Ramsay

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether his Department will in future make themselves responsible for the housing accommodation of civilian employees at naval establishments where any such accommodation cannot be found by these men themselves.

Mr. Alexander

No, Sir. My right hon. Friend, the Minister of Health, is responsible for housing questions. It is, however, the Admiralty's normal practice where the local authorities are unable to meet the housing requirements of Admiralty employees, to assist by making suitable representations to the Ministry of Health.
