HC Deb 25 May 1950 vol 475 c280W
111. Mr. Russell

asked the Minister of Health how many more houses per head of the population there are in Britain today than before the war, taking into account obsolescence and also substandard accommodation.

Mr. Bevan

I would refer the hon. Member to the statement I made in the course of the Second Reading of the Housing Bill on 16th March, 1949. Figures of the houses completed up to 31st March, 1950, are shown in the Housing Returns.
