HC Deb 03 December 1953 vol 521 c176W
Mr. Patrick Maitland

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he will authorise the East Kilbride Development Corporation to build a higher proportion of managerial-type houses to facilitate the attainment of his ideal of a balanced community.

Mr. J. Stuart

Managerial type houses built for letting by the Development Corporation cost the Exchequer considerable sums over and above the normal subsidies despite the high rents charged. I am, however, discussing the position with the Corporation.
