HC Deb 06 February 1947 vol 432 c379W
14. Mr. Osborne

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware of the injustice done to ex-Regular Army, R.N. and R.A.F. men, by the regulation that no houses are allocated to applications of persons who were not locally resident before the war; and if he will now give directions to local authorities to modify this rule in favour of ex-Regular Servicemen.

Mr. Bevan

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given on 1st August last to a Question by the hon. Member for Huntingdon (Mr. Renton), a copy of which I am sending to him.
