HC Deb 25 January 1977 vol 924 cc556-7W
Mr. Welsh

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many prefabricated concrete system-built houses and flats have been constructed in Glasgow over the past five years; what percentage of these houses and flats are at present known to be suffering from dampness problems; and what percentage have now been declared to be uninhabitable.

Mr. Hugh D. Brown

About 1,300 local authority dwellings of this kind were completed in Glasgow in the period 1972–76. The maintenance and management of houses belonging to local authorities is their responsibility and I do not maintain statistical information as to the condition of their houses.
