HC Deb 07 November 1986 vol 103 cc633-4W
Mr. Ron Brown

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what recent representations he has received from the Edinburgh council for the Single Homeless about accommodation for young people in the public sector; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Ancram

My right hon. and learned Friend and I have received letters dated 28 October from the Edinburgh Council for the Single Homeless, making a number of points about youth homelessness. We are still considering these representations; when my reply issues, I will send a copy to the hon. Member.
