HC Deb 20 January 1993 vol 217 c263W
Mr. Snape

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how many new homes will be provided by Sandwell metropolitan borough authority in 1993–94; what is the total provision from central funds which will be received by the authority in support of capital expenditure on housing; and what capital expenditure he expects the authority to incur next year.

Mr. Baldry

The level of local authority housing capital expenditure in Sandwell in 1993–94, and priorities within the capital programme for that year, are matters for the council to decide in the light of available resources. Sandwell's housing investment programme allocation for 1993–94 is £21,554,000. Further resources for 1993–94 could be made available to Sandwell from housing special programmes.
