HC Deb 09 June 1980 vol 986 cc44-5W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will issue a circular to local authorities after the Housing Bill has received Royal Assent advising them as to how they should reply to representations from people waiting for the allocation of, or a transfer to, a council house.

Mr. Stanley

No. Allocations and transfers are matters for the local authorities.
