asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs in what manner he has informed local authorities in the relevant reception areas of the subsidies available to them and the effect upon their housing provision for local residents and on their housing accounts in the event of their providing houses for miners transferred from other areas.

Sir K. Joseph

Details of the subsidy available for dwellings provided to meet the urgent needs of industry were given in Appendix II of Circular No. 55/61, This Circular was sent to all housing authorities, and it is for them to decide what effect the provision of such houses will have on housing provision for local residents and on their housing revenue accounts.
