HC Deb 23 October 1986 vol 102 c931W
Dr. Cunningham

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment, how properties have been selected for inclusion in the current house condition survey being undertaken by his Department.

Mr. Ridley

The 1986 English house condition survey, which is currently in progress, consists of a sample of 30,700 dwellings distributed across England. The sample was chosen to include all 8,200 addresses surveyed in the 1981 EHCS. Subject to certain technical adjustments to take account of regional differences in dwelling age and tenure, the remaining addresses were selected at random from the Post Code Address File.
