HC Deb 27 July 1962 vol 663 c200W
Mr. Frank Allaun

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs if he has now reconsidered the proposal that improvement grants be made available for installing baths without the existing condition that they must be in a separate bathroom.

Sir K. Joseph

Yes. While I can see that there might be grounds for permitting this in certain cases, it would involve an amendment of the standard grants scheme for which legislation would be needed. I can hold out no hope of that at the present time.
