HC Deb 18 November 1969 vol 791 c251W
Mr. Frank Allaun

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government the number of evictions from furnished dwellings in the last 12 months secured by court order.

Mr. Denis Howell

I understand that in 1968—the last period of twelve months for which figures can be supplied—5,677 warrants for possession were executed. The county court records do not identify the types of property to which warrants relate, so that warrants concerning furnished lettings cannot be distinguished from the rest.
