HC Deb 24 July 1989 vol 157 c471W
Mr. Madden

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will place in the Library due documents showing projected rents for council tenants throughout the United Kingdom arising from setting rents according to property capital values; what rents were projected for tenants of Bradford metropolitan district council; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Trippier

The Department of Environment has made no such projections. The Government have as yet made no decision on the overall national guidelines for rent income and management and maintenance expenditure which would be an essential part of any such projection.
