HC Deb 04 July 1990 vol 175 c565W
Mr. Fraser

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment when the Department first made available £200,000 to Lambeth council for the cash incentive scheme for tenants wishing to buy properties in the private sector.

Mr. Michael Spicer

My officials wrote to Lambeth on 27 March 1990 giving approval in principle to a cash incentive scheme in 1990–91 for which £200,000 in supplementary credit approvals will be available as part of the Government's homeless initiative. The supplementary credit approvals will be issued as grants are actually paid out.
