Mr. Dewar

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland how many(a) expressions of interest there have been and (b) applications have been received from tenants under the Government's rents-to-mortgages scheme in Scotland; and what this figure is as a percentage of the total number of tenants eligible to participate in the scheme.

Mr. Lang

[holding answer 13 May 1992]: Over 20,000 expressions of interest and 1,159 applications have been made under the rent-to-mortgage scheme. Those figures represent 5.4 per cent. and 0.3 per cent. respectively of the 370,000 tenants estimated to be eligible for the scheme.
