HC Deb 25 October 1955 vol 545 c1W
18. Mr. Hale

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he is aware that the Oldham Borough Corporation have been refused an increase in their allocation of corporation house building on the ground that they have not completed their current programme; and, as the necessity for a balanced building programme means that there must always be licences not taken up at any given date, whether he will reconsider the matter.

Mr. Sandys

No. The council have received approval to all the tenders they have submitted this year; and I am prepared to consider any further tenders they wish to submit.
