HC Deb 21 June 1982 vol 26 c34W
Mr. W. Benyon

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many dwellings have been sold by new town development corporations.

Mr. Stanley

From May 1979 until the end of March 1982, new town development corporations had sold 8,938 dwellings, with negotiations in hand for the sale of a further 4,109. Together these figures, which include sales of some formerly vacant dwellings, represent 16 per cent. of the tenancies at June 1979. The figures for individual towns are:

the full report of the recommendations contained in the report compiled by the Warren Spring Laboratory concerning acid rain; and what are the Government's intentions regarding implementing these recommendations.

Mr. Giles Shaw

No. Copies of the report have, however, been placed in the Library of the House. The report, which is an interim one, was received only last week in the Department and the conclusions and recommendations are now being studied.
