HC Deb 23 March 1983 vol 39 c445W
35. Mr. Beaumont-Dark

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment in how many local authorities gross rents meet less than 50 per cent. of total housing revenue account costs.

Mr. Stanley

On the information currently available from the subsidy claim forms which housing authorities in England returned last autumn, 19 authorities expect gross rent income to meet less than 50 per cent. of total housing revenue account costs in 1982–83.
