HC Deb 22 January 1979 vol 961 c22W
Mr. Craigen

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many completed units he expects to be made available in Scotland annually over the next two years as a result of the efforts of private housing associations and community-based housing associations.

Mr. Hugh D. Brown

There is no rigid distinction between private and community-based associations, but the number of houses expected to be completed by housing associations in Scotland financed through the Housing Corporation is:

New Rehabilitated
1979–80 1,300 2,500
1980–81 1,600 3,400

In addition, I would expect about 200 new and 200 rehabilitated houses to be completed each year by housing associations financed through local authorities.
