Mr. Dubs

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many people are living in local authority tower blocks or other high rise accommodation; and how many of them are families 'with young children.

For Great Britain in 1981 about 1 per cent. of households had the floor level of the main living part of their accommodation at the fourth floor or above. Of these households just over 20 per cent. were families with children.
