§ Mr. Tom Coxasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what representations have been made to his Department on the reduction of money to be paid towards housing improvement grants.
§ Sir George YoungI have received a number of representations from hon. Members, local government and other interested parties about the financial arrangements for home improvement grants in 1984–85. I expect local authority expenditure on grants this year to be many times the figure achieved in 1979.
