HC Deb 09 July 1987 vol 119 c222W
Dr. Cunningham

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the number of empty dwellings, as at 1 April 1986, in the Copeland constituency, owned by (a) the local authority, (b) the private sector, (c) housing associations, (d) the Ministry of Defence, (e) the Home Office and (f) others in the public sector.

Mr. Ridley

The information available to my Department is for vacant housing within the borough of Copeland at 1 April 1986, provided in the council's 1986 housing investment programme return, which is in the Library. Any vacant housing owned by Government Departments is included in the category "other public sector".
