§ 71. Mr. Abseasked the Minister of Works whether he is aware that the housing programmes of local authorities in Monmouthshire are in danger of collapse as a consequence of a shortage of cement, and that at Cwmbran contractors are being compelled to cease work on houses intended for steelworkers at the Spencer works; and what action he intends taking to remedy this.
§ Lord John HopeNo. I am assured that while casual orders may be subject to delay orders placed for regular supplies are being met in Monmouthshire. Special attention is being given to the position at Cwmbran.
