HC Deb 07 February 1979 vol 962 c198W
Mr. George

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what special housing provisions have been made for disabled people in the town of Walsall.

Mr. Armstrong

There are 26 wheelchair dwellings at present and nine more are proposed. The council owns several hundred "mobility" dwellings and it and the housing associations have some 240 more under construction. Works to aid disabled people were carried out in about 130 dwellings during 1977–78 and the figure for this year should be substantially greater.
