HC Deb 27 February 1991 vol 186 c531W
Mr. Soley

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects to be able to announce the details of the rental deposit scheme announced by the then Minister for Housing in June 1990.

Sir George Young

We are presently considering a proposal by the Notting Hill housing trust for a pilot project for a rent deposit fund, to begin in April. Notting Hill housing trust proposes to operate the fund in conjunction with the Threshold housing advice centre and Riverpoint, a voluntary agency working with the single homeless.
