HC Deb 21 October 1985 vol 84 c66W
17. Mr. Anderson

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what has been the percentage change in net public. expenditure on house building in Wales between 1979–80 and 1984–85 in real and cash terms.

Mr. Mark Robinson

Local authority and housing association receipts can be used to finance both new house-building and other capital expenditure such as major repairs. It is therefore not possible to give the figures requested.
