HC Deb 10 May 1965 vol 712 c15W
58. Mr. Kenneth Lewis

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what steps he is now taking to secure the co-operation of local authorities in providing orders for industrialised building through council building projects.

Mr. Crossman

In a circular of which I am sending the hon. Member a copy I have set out a number of means by which I expect to secure more industrialised building by local housing authorities. More than one in five of all dwellings started in the first quarter of this year by local authorities and new town corporations are being built by industrialised methods.
