§ 13. Mr. Hoyasked the Secretary of State for Scotland when he intends meeting the local authorities to discuss housing subsidies and future housing policy.
§ Mr. J. N. BrowneMy right hon. Friend has invited the local authority associations to meet him for this purpose on Friday, 20th April.
§ Mr. HoyMay we take it that the very high interest rates at present being charged to local authorities for house building purposes will be discussed at this meeting? Will the right hon. Gentleman remember the special needs of Scotland in regard to housing, and not follow the example which we have had south of the Border?
§ Mr. BrowneThe answer is "Yes" to both questions.
