HC Deb 14 December 1979 vol 975 c819W
Mrs. Renée Short

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will extend the provisions of the Housing (Homeless Persons) Act to give all single homeless people the right of access to a permanent home through their local housing departments.

Mr. Stanley
