asked the Minister of Health how many of the new houses for rural workers it is intended to build in Wales; and whether he will give particulars of their distribution between the counties?
328 houses are to be built in Wales and Monmouthshire. As the reply to the second part of the Question involves a list of figures, I will, with permission, circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT.
In arriving at this figure did the Ministry bear in mind the report made some time ago about rural housing in Wales? Was it considered?
The arrangement whereby the houses are to be built was made in conjunction with the Ministry of Agriculture through their Central War Executive Committee.
