HC Deb 19 January 1976 vol 903 c349W
Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales why he has decided to combine the allocation to district councils in Wales in 1976–77 for capitalised repairs on local authority housing stock, acquisition of private market housing and finance for HAA and GIAs into one allocation.

Mr. Alec Jones

As explained in the Welsh Office letter of 22nd December 1975 to all local authorities in Wales, the allocations are combined in order to give councils greater flexibility in applying the money available.
