asked the Minister of Health the amount of the outstanding debt of the local authorities of England and Wales, with the amount of the interest charges thereon, for the latest complete financial year for which the figures are available?

I am not at present in a position to give figures for a later year than I gave the hon. Member last October, but if he will repeat the question in the autumn, I shall hope then to be able to give him figures for the financial year 1920–21.
