HC Deb 21 December 1983 vol 51 c243W
Mr. Martin

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will discuss with the Housing Corporation an agreed common policy on the allocation of housing association tenancies in Scotland.

Mr. Ancram

Housing associations, which have many different objectives, are encouraged to develop allocation polices suited to their purposes. Their procedures are subject to monitoring and supervision by the Housing Corporation, and any rules which they formulate have to be published. We see no reason for changing these arrangements.
