HC Deb 15 December 1992 vol 216 c165W
Mr. McGrady

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what action he is taking to ensure that the Northern Ireland Housing Executive introduces an effective new build and improvements to purpose-built stock programme following the publication of the annual housing statistic report; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Atkins

Following the announcement on 8 December of its public expenditure allocation the Housing Executive will prepare its 1993–94 budget for approval by Government. I am confident that this budget will provide for the continuation of effective new build and IPBS programmes.
