HC Deb 27 May 1982 vol 24 cc408-9W
Mr. Frank R. White

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what was the bid entered by the Bury metropolitan council for a share of the additional sums made available for home improvement grants in the 1982–83 budget; and how much was allocated to the sections for intermediate or repair grants.

Mr. Stanley

Bury metropolitan council entered a bid for £746,000, including £84,000 for intermediate grants and £182,000 for repair grants. The council's provisional allocation of £600,000 does not include a specific sub-allocation for intermediate or repair grants, but can be used for all forms of home improvement grants.
