The Board also proposes that in addition to squatters cleared to

make way for development schemes, 30,000 squatters living in the worst conditions

should be rehoused during the same period.

The Board recommends that management practice in resettlement

estates should be brought more into line with that provided by the Housing

Authority in managing Government Low Cost Housing estates and that markets

should be provided in new and existing resettlement estates with the necessary

staff to ensure proper management.

A spokesman for the Board said that with the Census findings now

available, the Board would be reviewing its recommendations in the light

of these new figures. He explained that the recommendations contained in

the report were based on population and housing statistics compiled before

the 1971 Census.
