HC Deb 31 January 1967 vol 740 cc95-6W
Mr. Leo Abse

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what consideration has been given to the question of back-dating the housing subsidies under Clause 1(3)(c) of the Housing Subsidies Bill; and whether he will give a full list of qualifying authorities in Wales.

Mr. Cledwyn Hughes

The same broad considerations will apply in Wales as in England. All local authorities in Wales with more than 12½ per cent. slums according to returns submitted in response to circular No. 11/65 will qualify. The full list of 11 authorities is as follows:

  • Blaenavon U.D.C.
  • Glyncorrwg U.D.C.
  • Merthyr C.B.C.
  • Nantyglo and Blaina U.D.C.
  • Newtown and Llanllwchaiarn U.D.C.
  • Ogmore and Garw U.D.C.
  • Pembroke B.C.
  • Pontypool U.D.C.
  • Pwllheli B.C.
  • Rhondda B.C.
  • Rhymney U.D.C.
