Mr. Grocott

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the number of houses currently managed by each of the new town corporations.

Mrs. Roe

On 31 March 1987, the numbers of dwellings for rent owned by new town corporations were as follows:

Numbers
Milton Keynes 13,049
Peterborough 6,842

Numbers
Runcorn 9,049

Mr. Grocott

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is his latest estimate of the value of the assets of each of the remaining new town development corporations.

Mrs. Roe

With effect from the 1986–87 financial year, new town development corporations are required to show information on the value of their property assets in their annual accounts. I will write to the hon. Member with the information requested when the 1986–87 accounts have been received from all the development corporations.
