HC Deb 31 July 1956 vol 557 c106W
90. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what further consideration has been given to the means by which inducements can be offered to those with two or more unused rooms in urban houses to make them available for those needing accommodation; and what sample inquiries have been made to ascertain the approximate number of such unused rooms that could be occupied.

Mr. Sandys

Information on sizes of households and numbers of rooms occupied is in the 1 per cent. sample tables of the 1951 Census. I should be glad if the hon. Member would let me know what inducements he has in mind.
