HC Deb 06 July 1949 vol 466 c164W
Sir G. Fox

asked the Minister of Health how many houses have, by his instructions, been allocated during the last two years, respectively, by the Thame Urban District Council to agricultural workers; and if he is satisfied that his directions have been carried out.

Mr. Bevan

The Thame Urban District Council have allotted to agricultural workers the tenancy of three of the six houses completed this year; neither of the two houses completed in the previous year was so let. I have no reason to think that adequate consideration has not been given by the council to the priority accorded to agricultural workers.
