HC Deb 16 January 1976 vol 903 cc264-71W
Mr. W. E. Garrett

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the allocations to local authorities in England for council house improvement in 1976–77 under Section 105 of the Housing Act 1974.

Mr. Freeson

The allocations are listed below. Priority was given to existing commitments; to conversions for housing gain; to the improvement of substandard acquired dwellings and of purpose-built council dwellings lacking standard amenities; to measures aimed at combating homelessness and to bring uninhabited dwellings back into use; and to remedy conditions likely to be injurious to health or safety.
