§ Mr. Prescottasked the Minister of Health what has been the total allocation for new municipal houses made by his Department in respect of the Turton urban district since July, 1945; when the first decision was taken; and what alterations have since been made.
§ Mr. BevanThe present system of allocations was started in January, 1947. Before that date I had approved a scheme for the completion of 52 houses by the council. The first allocation covered 26 houses. A further 32 houses were allocated in January, 1949, but the allocation has not yet been taken up.
