HC Deb 17 May 1982 vol 24 c1W
Mr. Hawksley

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how much of the additional sum made available for home improvement grants in 1982–83 in the Budget Wrekin district council bid for in the sections for intermediate or repair grants.

Mr. Stanley

Wrekin council's original bid showed no bid for intermediate and repairs grants. However, the council subsequently informed the Department that this was an error and submitted a revised bid for £24,500 for intermediate and repairs grants. Following the supplementary allocation that I referred to in my reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Reading, North (Mr. Durant) on 6 May—[Vol. 23, c.117.]—Wrekin has now received an allocation of £25,000.
