HC Deb 02 March 1976 vol 906 c557W
Mr. David Price

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps he intends to take to extend the principle of leasehold enfranchisement to unfurnished flats with leases over five years in order to bring them into line with leasehold houses; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Freeson

Complex legal problems are involved which are currently under examination by the Law Commission. I do not expect therefore to be able to contemplate formulating workable proposals for some considerable time.
