§ Mr. Doverasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he has any plans to extend the provisions of the right-to-buy legislation to embrace council garages as well as council houses.
§ Mr. StanleyThe Housing Act 1980 already provides that a secure tenant who exercises the right to buy his dwellinghouse has the right to buy land that is let together with the dwellinghouse—unless it is agricultural land exceeding two acres. This means that a tenant is entitled to buy a garage that is let to him together with his home.
