93. Mr. P. Roberts

asked the Minister of Health, in view of the fact that the builders of Sheffield have 786 sites ready and are prepared to build 1,400 houses in the city in 12 months for the corporation, and 2,000 houses free of subsidy at £1,300, and that the scheme could be carried out with the present labour force, when the licences are to be issued.

Mr. Bevan

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the hon. Member for Orpington (Sir W. Smithers) on 8th July, of which I am sending him a copy.
