HC Deb 11 May 1976 vol 911 cc108-12W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the local authorities in England stating their expenditure on: (a) new housing and (b) on modernisation schemes for the latest year for which figures are available.

Mr. Armstrong

Local authorities report spending the following amounts on the construction of new housing revenue account dwellings, and related works in 1974–75. Those authorities not included in the list either have not yet made returns or did not separate housebuilding expenditure from other housing expenditure.

Similar figures are not available for schemes of modernisation.
