Single-Storey Prefabricated Houses, Hull

HC Deb 18 November 1968 vol 773 cc229-30W

Commander Pursey

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will state the number of single-storey prefabricated houses made available by his Department to Hull Corporation each year, and the total number in which the electrical installations have been inspected and tested, in accordance with the several circulars sent by his

Department to the Corporation, and the number which have been rewired.

Mr. MacColl

Under the temporary house programme, which was completed in 1948, Kingston upon Hull Corporation was allocated 2,457 bungalows. Repair of these dwellings is entirely a matter for the local authority and my right hon. Friend regrets he has no information about it.
