HC Deb 17 April 1962 vol 658 c37W
67. Mr. A. Lewis

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs if he will state the amount of money on loan to, and outstanding for repayment by, the County Borough of West Ham for each of the years from 1951 until the latest convenient stated date; and on the basis of repayment spread over 60 years what would be the annual repayment charges for each of these years at the then current interest rates.

77. Mr. Slater

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs if he will state the amount of money on loan to, and outstanding for repayment by, the local authorities in the Sedgefield Parliamentary constituency, for the years from 1951 to the latest convenient date; and, on the basis of repayment spread over 60 years, what will be the annual repayment charges for each of these years at the then current interest rates.

79. Mr. Milne

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what amounts were on loan to Blyth Borough Council, Bedlington Urban District Council and Seaton Valley Urban District Council in 1951 and at the latest convenient date; and what would be the annual repayment charges in each of these years, based on repayment spread over 60 years.

Dr. Hill

I do not have completely detailed information about the outstanding debt of particular authorities. This can be obtained from the authorities, and I am sure that any authority would supply the information in response to a request by an hon. Member.

As regards the second part of the Question this is so unrealistic in assuming that the whole debt is all newly borrowed and all for 60 years that I should not feel justified in asking for the calculation to be made.
