§ Mr. Gregoryasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the number of sales completed under the right to buy or voluntary procedures for each year since 1979 to the latest available date by York city council; and how this level of sales compares with the national average.
§ Sir George YoungSales in the years 1980–81 to 1983–84 reported by York, appear in issues 62, 63, 67 and 71 respectively of "Local Housing Statistics"; copies are available in the Library. In 1979–80, 164 dwellings were sold and in April to December 1984 161.
Total sales from April 1979 to December 1984 were 1,414, equivalent to 13 per cent. of York's council housing stock at April 1984: in England as a whole, local authority sales were 13.6 per cent. of its April 1984 stock.
