HC Deb 01 May 1984 vol 59 c115W
Mr. Greg Knight

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many gipsy sites there are in Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire, respectively; how many pitches are thereby provided in each county; and at the latest date for which figures are available, how many caravans were recorded on those sites.

Mr. Macfarlane

My Department's records of numbers of sites and pitches relate to local authority sites only. Information about numbers of caravans is, however, available for both local authority and private sites. The following figures show the position at the time of the latest count, in January 1984.

Local Authority Sites PrivateSites
Numbers of Sites Numbers of Pitches Number of Caravans Number of Caravans
Derbyshire 3 41 35 10
Nottinghamshire 1 12 15 91
Leicestershire 3 36 58 41
