§ 47. Dr. Stuttafordasked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will make a statement on the progress made in the provision of sheltered housing for the elderly since 1970.
§ Mr. EyreSeparate figures of sheltered housing are not available. But since 1970 almost one-third of all new house building by local authorities, new town corporations and housing associations consisted of one-bedroom accommodation, most of which is likely to have been intended for occupation by old people.
