§ Mr. Kilfedderasked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whether he will make a statement about the action which will be required of the Northern Ireland Housing Executive with regard to the existing points system if he is to realise the hope expressed in paragraph 5.1.4. of the official statement on Poleglass, that it will become a mixed community.
§ Mr. CarterThe housing selection scheme operated by the Northern Ireland Housing Executive is based on the principle of priority to those in greatest housing need and pays no regard to the religious persuasion or political views of applicants. No change in the scheme is accordingly necessary to permit integrated housing at Poleglass or, for that matter, elsewhere in Northern Ireland.
§ Mr. Kilfedderasked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whether the Fair Employment Agency was asked to comment on paragraph 5.1.1. of the official statement on Poleglass, that it would be unrealistic to contemplate any mixed work forces in sites within the Poleglass scheme; and what those comments were.
§ Mr. CarterNo. The paragraph in question is a summary of the views which were contained in the report of the Planning Appeals Commission on the Poleglass public inquiry.
