§ Mr. Hobdenasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what effects his circular of 6th August, 1965, has had on the Brighton housing programme.
§ Mr. MellishFollowing the circular my right hon. Friend is considering the size of programmes which individual 129W authorities might undertake in 1966. To enable Brighton Corporation to lay plans for at least the first half of the year they have been told that approval will be given initially for some 150 dwellings. My right hon. Friend hopes soon to be able to settle a programme for the whole year.
