HC Deb 21 May 1992 vol 208 c244W
28. Mr. McGrady

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what steps he intends to take to ensure that funding levels are increased for the Northern Ireland Housing Executive to a level equal to housing need.

Mr. Atkins

The total resources available to the Northern Ireland Housing Executive in 1992–93 will be about £486 million. I am confident that this will be sufficient to enable the executive to continue the progress that it has made in recent years both in reducing the urgent waiting list and in improving housing conditions in Northern Ireland.
