64. Mr. Swingler

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what is the total value of loans for which local authorities have applied for sanction since 1st January, 1956; what proportion of these applications has been sanctioned and what proportion refused.

Mr. Sandys

Combined records are not kept by the Departments concerned of the value of loans for which sanction is asked. I regret, therefore, that the information sought is not readily available.
