§ Mr. HeddleTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will investigate the reasons why Her Majesty's Stationery Office has no stocks of the Housing (Homeless Persons) Act 1977; and, in view of the current review on the matter of homelessness, if he will ensure that adequate stocks are maintained.
§ Mr. LilleyHMSO no longer maintains stocks of the Housing (Homeless Persons) Act 1977 because it was repealed for England and Wales by the Housing (Consequential Provisions) Act 1985 (c. 71) s. 3, Sch. 1 Part I, and for Scotland by the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 (c. 26), s. 339, Sch. 24. Its main provisions are covered, on consolidation, for England and Wales in the Housing Act 1980 (c. 51) and for Scotland in the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 (c. 26), and HMSO holds adequate stocks of these Acts in both the Queen's Printer's and the Statutes in Force versions.
