HC Deb 18 December 1970 vol 808 c473W
Mr. James Hill

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will allow local councils building warden-controlled old people's flats a reduced interest loan on the building capital required.

Mr. Channon

The present subsidy arrangements, which in effect reduce the loan charges, include a cost yardstick system which takes into account the higher cost of providing additional facilities for warden-assisted old people's housing.
