HC Deb 24 April 1980 vol 983 c261W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what percentage of unfit houses is (a) owner-occupied, (b) privately-rented and (c) local authority-owned.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

In 1976, the last year for which reliable estimates are available, the distribution of unfitness by tenure was as follows:

Tenure Distribution of Unfit Houses per cent.
Owner-occupied 47
Rented from local authority or new town 3
Other (mainly rented privately or from housing associations) 50
All tenures 100
