§ 85. Mr. Haireasked the Minister of Works whether he is aware that the delay in the supply of bricks in the High Wycombe area is 12 to 15 weeks; if he will state the reasons for this delay; and what steps he is taking to deal with it.
§ Mr. KeyThe increase in the rate of production of bricks has not wholly kept pace with the higher level of demand during a year of exceptionally good building weather. I am not aware that the High Wycombe area is receiving less than its fair share and I expect an improvement in supplies.
