HC Deb 16 May 1973 vol 856 cc315-6W
44. Mr. Harold Walker

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment why he has refused to permit Doncaster Corporation to build 53 retired person's bungalows at Hexthorpe, Doncaster: and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Channon

I should welcome the provision of more homes for the elderly, but unfortunately the council has not yet succeeded in obtaining a tender for this scheme at a reasonable price.
