HC Deb 30 July 1975 vol 896 c547W
Mr. Anderson

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what progress has been made in consultations with the Building Societies Association in agreeing means of diverting some building society funds to local authorities for mortgage lending.

Mr. Alec Jones

I am in touch with building societies in Wales. They are regarding sympathetically the situation which has arisen as a result of the suspension of local authority mortgage lending and are prepared to help where possible in individual cases.
