HC Deb 25 November 1986 vol 106 cc174-5W
Mr. Ron Davies

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what has been the net cost to date and in this financial year to the latest available date for each local housing authority in Wales of (a) refurbishment grants, (b) wholesale repurchases and (c) wholesale repurchases following rejection of a refurbishment grant application on the grounds of excessive cost under the Housing Defects Act 1984.

Mr. Mark Robinson

[pursuant to his reply, 20 November 1986, c. 308–10]: There were, unfortunately, errors in the answer. The correct information is as follows: The cost to date of reinstatement grants and repurchases is given in the following table. The reasons for repurchases by authorities are not held centrally.

Cost of repurchase Cost of reinstatement
December 1984 to June 1986 April 1986 to June 1986 December 1984 to June 1986 April 1986 to June 1986
