§ 1. Mr. Bruce-Gardyneasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is his latest estimate of the extent of the subsidy and of revenue from taxation paid towards the running costs of each Scottish Special Housing Association house in 1968–69 and in 1972–73, respectively; and what is his forecast of the corresponding figures for 1974–75 and 1977–78, respectively.
§ Mr. YoungerThe average amount of housing subsidy paid for each Scottish Special Housing Association house was £36 in 1968–69 and £77 in 1972–73. In 1974–75 it is likely to be about £58. No realistic forecast can be made for 1977–78.
