HC Deb 14 July 1978 vol 953 cc808-9W
Mr. David Knox

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list those local authorities which provide accommodation for single homeless people other than those for whom they are legally obliged to provide accommodation.

Mr. Armstrong

Information about the number of authorities which have secured accommodation for single homeless people not in priority need as defined in the Act will be available when the statistics which the Department collects from local authorities have been analysed; I shall write to the hon. Member as soon as it is available.
