HC Deb 18 July 1947 vol 440 c85W
Mr. Lambert

asked the Minister of Works whether he is aware that the shortage of grates is preventing the Crediton Urban District Council from completing 16 houses on the Barnfield estate; and what steps he is taking to expedite the delivery of these grates.

Mr. Key

Yes. The type of grate specified by the urban district council cannot be delivered until October. A similar type can be delivered almost at once, and my officials are in touch with the council to ascertain whether they will accept the alternative.
