§ Mr. Channonasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will set out in tabular form the amount of loan sanction given to local authorities in England and Wales in the years 1960 to 1966, inclusive, for the building of houses for direct sale; and how much loan sanction will be given for that purpose in 1967.
§ Mr. MacCollSeparate loan sanction figures are not available, because such houses frequently form part of a larger contract for a local authority housing scheme which is the subject of a single loan sanction.
