HC Deb 04 June 1980 vol 985 c750W
35. Mr. Speller

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many inquiries his Department has received from tenants in co-ownership concerning the right to buy.

Mr. Stanley

About 300. The great majority of co-owners will, I believe, welcome the statement I made during the Report stage of the Housing Bill when moving the new clause which will give co-ownership societies the power to sell dwellings to their members.—[Vol. 985, cols. 88–91.]
