Mr. Leighton

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how much the London Docklands Development Corporation is spending on social housing and community facilities in the current year in the London Borough of Newham; and what are the future plans.

Mr. Moynihan

LDDC's programme includes £24 million of expenditure on social housing and community projects specific to Newham in the current year, in addition to expenditure on various Docklandswide initiatives which will also benefit this area.

Future plans will be decided in the light of the Department's expenditure plans for 1990–91 to 1992–93 which will be announced by the Secretary of State at the time of the autumn statement.
