HC Deb 16 October 1946 vol 427 c223W
134. Sir C. Edwards

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware that certain houses were destroyed by enemy action, and that owing to new road construction they cannot be built on the same site; and whether, as there is no provision in the War Damage Act for payment on a cost-of-work basis for a house built on another site, he will take steps to rectify this, seeing that a 1939 value payment will not provide anything like a similar house.

Mr. Dalton

I would refer my right hon. Friend to my answer to my hon. Friend the Member for the Sutton Division of Plymouth (Mrs. Middleton) on 6th June, of which I am sending him a copy.
