HC Deb 16 March 1989 vol 149 c320W
Mr. Heddle

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps he takes to ensure that all local authorities bring to the attention of their tenants arid to those on their housing waiting lists, particularly single people, the provisions of the tenants' charter in the Housing Act 1980 with particular reference to the creation of sub-tenancies.

Mr. Trippier

Responsibility for informing their existing and potential tenants must lie with local authorities, but leaflets on the tenants' charter and, specifically, on lodgers, are distributed widely by my Department.
