HC Deb 31 October 1994 vol 248 cc981-2W
Mr. Battle

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the authorities which have handed their council housing over through the large-scale voluntary transfer scheme and the number and total value of properties concerned

Mr. Curry

Since 1988, 34 local authorities have transferred a total of 154,081 homes through large-scale voluntary transfer. These authorities are as listed. The tenanted market value of the dwellings transferred is £1,358 million. Tenanted market value reflects the fact that the stock is transferred as a going concern for the long term provision of social rented housing.
