HC Deb 12 April 1994 vol 241 c133W
Mr. Hendry

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what are the most recent figures he has for the total number of local authority houses vacant in Leeds; and what proportion of these are management lets.

Sir George Young

The latest available information reported by Leeds city council shows that 1,454 of its dwellings were vacant at 1 April 1993; some 62 per cent. of these were management vacants—that is, dwellings available for letting immediately or after minor repairs.
