HC Deb 07 April 1971 vol 815 c149W
Mr. Laurance Reed

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the latest available figure for the price of an average new house; and how this compares, from information available from international sources, with prices in each of the countries of the European Economic Community.

Mr. Amery

The average price of new dwellings mortgaged with building societies by private owners in this country in 1970 was £5,130. Comparable figures are not available for the countries of the European Economic Community.
