HC Deb 17 November 1949 vol 469 cc222-3W
73. Mr. Odey

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer why, in connection with war damage to Chalk Villa, Beverley, the property of Mr. F. W. Arnott, the War Damage Commission are insisting upon the repayment of £212 already paid before they will agree to consider further claims which have been made for damage subsequently discovered.

Mr. Glenvil Hall

I regret that I cannot undertake to answer Questions concerning individual war damage claims, but I will forward the hon. Member's inquiry to the War Damage Commission.

75. Mr. Austin

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware that Mr. O'Rourke of 382 City Road, Old Trafford, has been waiting three years for a settlement of a war damage claim relating to 378–382 City Road, Old Trafford; that in regard to work supposedly completed, the Stretford Borough Council has served a sanitary inspector's defect notice on Mr. O'Rourke; and if he will hasten action by the War Damage Commission to enable Mr. O'Rourke to satisfy the council's requirements in this matter.

Mr. Glenvil Hall

I regret I cannot undertake to answer Questions about individual war damage claims. I will however forward the hon. Member's inquiry to the War Damage Commission.
