§ Mr. Robin F. Cookasked the Secretary of State for Scotland (1) if he will place in the Library a copy of the local housing plans that have been received by his office;
(2) if he will publish in the Official Report a table showing the bid for capital allocation for housing projects in the forthcoming year by each housing authority and the amount he has allocated to each authority.
§ Mr. Hugh D. BrownHousing plans have now been submitted by all 56 local housing authorities and arrangements are being made to make copies available in the Library. The expenditure bids made by authorities for 1978–79 are given in the table below. Details of allocations and actual expenditure by district and islands councils over the past three years were given in my reply to the hon. Member for West Stirlingshire (Mr. Canavan) on 21st February.—[Vol. 944, c.508–10.] 244W The non-housing revenue account bids submitted by authorities include estimates for lending to housing associations—amounting to about £6 million—but this expenditure is treated separately from the allocations for 1978–79.
