HC Deb 30 November 1965 vol 721 c164W
67. Mr. Costain

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will give separate percentage figures for dwellings at present under construction for local authorities and owner-occupiers, respectively, which are employing industrialised building methods.

Mr. MacColl

On 30th September, 1965, 17.8 per cent. of dwellings under construction for local authorities and new towns in England and Wales were being built by industrialised methods. My right hon. Friend has no comparable figures for the private sector, but the numbers are very small.
