HC Deb 19 June 1985 vol 81 c124W
26. Mr. David Marshall

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will introduce legislation to amend the Rent (Scotland) Act 1984 so as to enable local authorities to have a fair rent registered in any tenancy, so long as the fair rent is not any higher than the existing rent.

Mr. Ancram

We are monitoring the situation to see whether there may be a need to review local authorities' powers under the Rent (Scotland) Act 1984.
