HC Deb 29 July 1982 vol 28 c675W
Mr. Heddle

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will consider legislation to prevent institutional lenders from giving 100 per cent. mortgages to house purchasers, in order to control house price inflation.

Mr. Bruce-Gardyne

I do not consider that this is a suitable subject for legislation; nor do I agree with my hon. Friend that 100 per cent. mortgages are a dominant or significant determinant of house price inflation.
