HC Deb 02 February 1983 vol 36 c138W
25. Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland, how many houses have been sold by housing associations in Scotland to sitting tenants; and what percentage this represents of the total housing stock possessed by such associations.

Mr. Allan Stewart

Further to the written answer that I gave to my hon. Friend's question on 20 December 1982—[Vol. 34, c.332.]—the number of houses sold to sitting tenants is now 15. These sales still account for less than 1 per cent. of the relevant housing stock.
