HC Deb 24 July 1989 vol 157 c508W
Mr. McAllion

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland how many homes have been repossessed in the last year for default on mortgage payments in the last year; and what are the corresponding figures for each year since 1979

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

The Building Societies Association publishes statistics on the number of repossessions by building societies in the United Kingdom as a whole; but no corresponding information is available for Scotland only. No information is held centrally on other mortgage lenders.
