HC Deb 16 March 1987 vol 112 cc402-3W
Mr. Shore

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many houses and flats were completed in the borough of Tower Hamlets in each year since 1974; and how many of these, in each year, were houses and flats for sale.

Mr. Tracey

Completions of dwellings in Tower Hamlets reported by the borough and by the Greater London council appear in the following issues of "Local Housing Statistics", which are available in the Library:

Year Issue number Table numbers
1974 33 5,7
1975 37 5,7
1976 41 5,7
1977 45 5,7
1978 49 5,7
1979 53 5,7
1980–83 73 1,3
1984 77 1,3
1985 78 1,3

The borough has not made any reports for 1985 and 1986.

No completions have been reported of dwellings built by the public sector for sale in Tower Hamlets. Information received on private sector building does not distinguish dwellings for rent from those for sale.
