HC Deb 20 March 1947 vol 435 c90W
41. Mr. Skeffington-Lodge

asked the Minister of Health whether, in the Yorkshire dales and other districts of amenity interest, he will make such arrangements, in addition to using local stone, as will employ labour and second-hand materials available in the district before calling on outside resources now in short supply.

Mr. J. Edwards

As with the use of stone, the initiative lies with local authorities. My right hon. Friend is ready to consider all reasonable proposals.
