§ Mr. Frank Allaunasked the Minister of Health (1) how many households are without a bath, without an inside lavatory, and without a hot water system in the 1961 census in each county in England and Wales; and what are the figures after correcting the understatements in the 1961 census revealed in the post-enumeration survey;
(2) how many households are without a bath, without an inside lavatory, and without a hot water system, after correcting the understatements in the 1961 census revealed in the post-enumeration survey, in London, Salford, Manchester, Leeds, Stoke-on-Trent, Newcastle-on-Tyne, Birmingham, Sheffield, Oldham and Bournemouth, respectively.
§ Mr. BraineThe following table shows the numbers of households in each county in England and Wales which were stated in the 1961 census to be lacking a fixed bath, hot water tap or watercloset in the building or attached to it. My reply to the hon. Member on 4th May indicated the degree of inaccuracy in the replies to these questions revealed by the postemuneration survey. But since it has not yet been possible to analyse the survey to see whether there are significant differences in the extent of the misstatements in different parts of England52W and Wales, it is not yet possible to say what corrections might be needed for local areas.
