HC Deb 25 October 1982 vol 29 c322W
Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many houses have been sold by housing associations in England and Wales, giving the figures, with and without discount in each housing authority area.

Mr. Stanley:

An estimated 15,000 housing association dwellings, including co-ownership dwellings, in England were sold between 1 April 1980 and 30 June 1982. Separate figures for sale with or without discount, or for each housing authority area are not available.

For information on sales in Wales I refer my hon. Friend to my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Wales.

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will name the housing associations which have sold houses in England and Wales.

Sir George Young:

A comprehensive list of housing associations which have sold houses in England and Wales is not available. I am, however, sending my hon. Friend a list of 66 associations which have so far completed sales in England and Wales under the right to buy provisions of the Housing Act 1980.
