HC Deb 09 December 1952 vol 509 cc39-40W
120. Dr. Stross

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government how many council houses have been sold by local authorities for private ownership since the issue of circular 64/52; and whether he will give the numbers for England and Wales and also for North Staffordshire.

Mr. Marples

My right hon. Friend has no information yet. Local authorities are not required to notify him before a sale under the general consent he gave in the circular is completed.
