HC Deb 26 May 1970 vol 801 c458W
Mr. Tom Boardman

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will list the local authorities which have been requested by his Department since 1st January, 1967 to reduce their house-building programmes, and the percentage reductions required in each case.

Mr. Freeson:

To gather the information requested by the hon. Member would involve the study of files relating to 1,200 housing authorities and would cause unreasonable trouble and expense. but the number is small.
