§ Mr. Welshasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what effects the public spending cut-backs on roads, drainage and other ancillary necessary services are having on local authority housing programmes; and what representations he has had on this matter.
§ Mr. Hugh D. BrownThe resources available overall for infrastructure should be sufficient for the timeous servicing of essential new local authority housing, and the few instances of apparent difficulty about which I have had representations either have been or seem likely to be satisfactory resolved.
