Housing
The tempo of "clearance area" work has been maintained during
the year. Public Inquiries were held during the year in respect
of five clearance areas represented in 1955. Objections were
received against the inclusion of some 70% of the houses involved
in the areas.
Four clearance areas were officially represented in 1956 and in
respect of one of them a Public Inquiry took place at the end of
the year.
Consequent upon severe flooding some amendments have been
made in the clearance area programme. As indicated in another
part of my report two areas Kent/Braemar Roads and Cunningham
Road have been brought forward and were the subject of official
representations.
