HC Deb 11 February 1948 vol 447 c92W
Mr. Bossom

asked the Minister of Health if he will give the list of the financial allocations of the various authorities who have the right to permit building or constructional work to be undertaken in their particular areas.

Mr. Bevan

The information is not available in any statistical form. Financial allocations are not fixed in all areas and regional building committees adopt varying and convenient methods of indicating at zone conferences the general lines on which local authorities can best relate the volume of licences issued to the available local resources of labour.
