HC Deb 29 June 1950 vol 476 cc259-60W
Mr. Gilzean

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement about the review of Exchequer contributions payable for new houses completed by local authorities in Scotland.

Mr. McNeil

As a result of a review which I have just completed I have decided that I would not be justified in making an Order reducing the level of these contributions, which will remain as at present in respect of houses completed up to the 30th June, 1951. I shall submit a report to the House on this subject at an early date.
