HC Deb 27 March 1985 vol 76 cc253-6W
Mrs. Beckett

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will list the local authorities who have (a) requested and (b) received authorisation to operate a high rent area scheme (i) for public authority and private tenants, (ii) for public authority tenants, (iii) for private sector tenants and (iv) for class authorisations.

Mr. Whitney

[pursuant to his reply, 5 March 1985, c. 515–6]: When a local authority applies for a general high rent authorisation in either the private or public sector it is automatically treated as an application for authorisation in both sectors. The table lists at(a)those authorities which have requested high rent authorisations; and at(b)those authorities which have received authorisations in addition to the authorities listed in my hon. Friend's replies to the hon. Member for Derby, South of 30 October and 12 December 1984 at columns 957 and 535 respectively.
