HC Deb 15 October 1968 vol 770 c90W
61. Mr. Graham Page

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will now state the contents of the legislation he proposes to initiate regarding long leasehold dwellings where film is a variable service charge recoverable as rent, in view of the fact that at present such dwellings are unsaleable by the tenant-owners, building societies refuse to advance upon the security of them and existing tenant-owners stand to lose about £100 million of the money which they paid for them.

Mr. MacColl

I would refer the hon. Member to the Answer I gave yesterday to the Question on this subject by the hon. Member for Woking (Mr. Onslow) and to the Answer which I gave to him as long ago as 23rd July.—[Vol. 769, c.63–4; Vol. 770, c. 33.]
