HC Deb 01 April 1987 vol 113 c557W
Mr. Nellist

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many council houses were started in 1986; and what was the comparable figure in 1976.

Mr. Tracey

The number of dwellings started for local authorities in 1976 appears in table 6.1(a) of "Housing and Construction Statistics, 1975–1985" and the provisional figure for 1986 appears in table 2(a) of "Housing and Construction Statistics" No. 28. Copies of both publications are available in the Library.
