19 Aug 1940 Jahr - Decadent Areas Committee finds 85% Maori housing unfit for habitation

Beschreibung:

DAC found a very large number of Maori families
occupying houses in an advanced state of decay. They (Maori) appeared to be the majority in the central city district. In the Auckland suburb of Orakei 85% of Maori houses were 'unfit for habitation' and the remaining 15% required 'extensive repair', according to a Council survey conducted in 1940. This evidence points to poor Maori housing in urban areas, and in subsequent Chapters we will see this was indeed the case.
