Mr. Gwilym Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether all local authority bids for funding under the Housing Defects Act have been met in full by his Department; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Mark Robinson

Local authority bids for expenditure under the Housing Defects Act were met in full for 1985–86 and for 1986–87 by means of separately identified HSIP allocations.

Mr. Gwilym Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales, pursuant to his answer to the hon. Member for Cardiff, North on 27 November 1985, Official Report, column 581, what further information is necessary to enable him to decide whether a higher expenditure limit under the Housing Defects Act is necessary.

Mr. Mark Robinson

We are at present costing the various types of reinstatement schemes which are becoming available.
