HC Deb 01 March 1956 vol 549 cc154-5W
Mr. Patrick Maitland

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he has yet given approval to the construction of houses at East Kilbride for owner-occupiers; and what number of applications for such houses has been received by the Development Corporation.

Mr. J. Stuart

No such proposals have been approved meantime, but it is understood that at least one firm of private builders has approached the Corporation with tentative proposals for building houses for owner-occupation. I am informed that the number of individual applications received by the Corporation for houses for owner-occupation is thirty-seven.
