HC Deb 17 February 1992 vol 204 cc18-9W
1990 and 1991. Mr. John P. Smith

To ask the Attorney-General how many repossession orders were made at Barry county court in favour of building societies or other lending institutions between(a) 1979 and 1989 and (b)

The Attorney-General

The table gives the total number of mortgage possession actions entered and orders made in Barry county court for each year since 1987, the earliest year for which the information is available. These figures do not indicate how many houses have been repossessed through the courts as not all of the orders made will have resulted in the issue and execution of warrants of possession. At this stage, the 1991 figures are provisional and, therefore, liable to revision in the future.
