HC Deb 08 February 1971 vol 811 cc50-1W
Mr. Lomas

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is his estimate of the number of substandard dwellings in the County Borough of Huddersfield; and what action he proposes to take to accelerate the clearance programme.

Mr. Channon

Information on the number of substandard dwellings in Huddersfield can be obtained from the Town Council. The plans for the reform of housing finance include special provision to relieve the present high cost of slum clearance.
