HC Deb 16 July 1987 vol 119 c577W
Mr. Nellist

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will provide a list of the number of local authority homes in each local authority in the east and west midlands which were considered to be in need of repair in each year since 1979.

Mr. Waldegrave

Information is not available in the form requested. The numbers of local authority dwellings which are unfit, fit but lacking basic amenities, and others needing major renovation are provided by local authorities in their annual housing investment programme returns. Figures appear in columns A31, A41, and A51 of the "HIP All items print" for 1984, 1985, and 1986, which are in the Library. For earlier years the corresponding figures appear in authorities' individual HIP returns, which are also in the Library.
