Mr. McMaster

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will visit Paisley, South constituency to assess the need for further investment in housing associations.

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

The assessment of individual investment proposals by housing associations is a matter for Scottish Homes and private lenders. In total Scottish Homes allocation of funds to housing association projects throughout Scotland will be about £260 million in 1993–94, a record sum. The hon. Member may wish to pursue his particular constituency interests with Scottish Homes.
