asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government how many licences for new projects in the reconstruction area of Southampton have been issued since 25th October, 1951.

Mr. Marples

Four.

89. Mr. Morley

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will make a statement on the licences to be issued this year for new projects in the reconstruction area of Southampton.

Mr. Marples

My right hon. Friend will be able to sponsor the issue of a licence for the rebuilding of one shop for which all the steel was in hand before the steel allocation scheme came into force. He cannot yet say whether licences for any further projects can be issued this year.
