HC Deb 04 April 1978 vol 947 cc104-5W
Mr. Ford

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects to make an announcement conveying his decision upon the application for a special grant by North British Housing Group in relation to works required on the Pollard Park Estate in the constituency of the hon. Member for Bradford, North.

Mr. Armstrong

Officials have recently met representatives of the North British Housing Association. I understand that some remedial works are already in hand in Pollard Park. Because the problem is not an isolated one the question of grant will have to be considered in the light of the implications for public expenditure on housing generally. This will be done as soon as possible.
