§ 39. Mrs. PeacockTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what response he has had to his White paper on housing policy; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. WaldegraveI have received a large number of comments on the White Paper on housing and the associated consultation and explanatory documents issued by the Department. These comments have come from the local authority associations, a number of individual local authorities, and various organisations and individuals with an interest in housing. We are considering very carefully all the points that respondents have made.
