HC Deb 09 May 1988 vol 133 cc17-8W
Mr. Leighton

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he has any plans to introduce legislation to give London Docklands development corporation powers to refurbish council housing.

Mr. Trippier

No legislation is required. The LDDC has already carried out external refurbishment or environmental works on over 25 council estates and the corporation is considering what further contributions it might make.
