HC Deb 11 February 1958 vol 582 c22W
37. Mr. T. W. Jones

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what action he is taking to ensure that so far as possible Welsh roofing slates are used in local authority building.

Mr. H. Brooke

It must be for each local authority to choose the materials it will use for its houses. No objection will be taken by my Department to any local authority in England or Wales incurring additional first cost by using Welsh slates.
