HC Deb 11 June 1975 vol 893 c183W

47. Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the Government's policy regarding the transfer to local authorities of Greater London Council housing estates situate outside Greater London.

Mr. Kaufman

It is important that the Greater London Council should have under its control sufficient housing stock, including estates outside London, to fulfill its rôle as strategic housing authority.
