HC Deb 31 October 1990 vol 178 cc532-3W
Mr. Yeo

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what were the criteria used by the Housing Corporation in deciding its allocations for 1990–91.

Mr. Key

The allocation of resources for the support of individual housing association schemes in any year is a matter for the Housing Corporation, within a framework of broad principles which has been agreed with my right hon. Friend.

Mr. Yeo

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment (1) if he will publish the allocations for each of the last five years by the Housing Corporation for projects in Suffolk, listing the totals for each district and borough council;

(2) if he will publish the bids submitted by each district and borough council in Suffolk for allocations in each of the last five years by the Housing Corporation.

Mr. Key

These are a matter for the Housing Corporation. I have, therefore, asked the corporation to respond to my hon. Friend direct.
