HC Deb 28 November 1950 vol 481 c142W
Mr. Granville

asked the Minister of Health the number of houses, including agricultural workers' cottages, built in East Suffolk in the period from 1945 to 1949.

Mr. Bevan

I would refer the hon. Member to Appendix B to the Housing Return.

Mr. Granville

asked the Minister of Health what is the basis of allocation of permanent and temporary houses for the town of Framlingham, Suffolk; how many have been built since 1945; and whether the full quota has been built.

Mr. Bevan

In making allocations of permanent houses to individual local authorities account has to be taken of a number of factors including the amount of work outstanding from previous allocations at the time when each allocation is made. The individual allocation can be judged, therefore, only in the light of full knowledge of the local circumstances on which they are based and publication of such figures would be misleading. The temporary housing programme was completed in 1948. As regards the second part of this question, I would refer the hon. Member to Appendix B of the Housing Returns.
