§ 95. Mr. Deedesasked the Minister of Local Government and Planning what steps he has taken to ensure that local authorities are fully aware that housing allocations by his Department depend now on local performance as well as needs; and if he will say what instructions have gone from his Department to regions on this point.
§ Mr. LindgrenMy right hon. Friend has repeatedly stated this policy both to this House and outside and it has been widely reported. In accordance with this policy his regional officers have already increased allocations to more than 300 local authorities.
