HC Deb 31 October 1983 vol 47 cc243-4W
21. Sir Raymond Gower

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if, in view of anxieties expressed by house builders in Wales, he will consider in what parts of the Principality there are shortages of sites for future house building; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. John Stradling Thomas

Housing land availability surveys carried out by the Land Authority for Wales indicate that generally there is an adequate supply of land for house building. Only in 2 districts—Cardiff and Rhymney Valley—is there an immediate need to increase the supply.
