HC Deb 18 November 1982 vol 32 c262W
Mr. John Grant

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment with which charitable organisations he has consulted about his legislative proposals to extend the right-to-buy arrangements for rented property; and what views were expressed or representations were made during such consultations.

Mr. Stanley

There have been no formal consultations as such but my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary indicated in the House on 19 April this year.—[Vol. 22; c.103.]—that representations on this point would be carefully noted. A letter from the National Federation of Housing Associations opposing this proposal was received subsequently. Various representations have been received from tenants of charitable housing associations seeking this extension and letters have been received from some hon. Members.
