HC Deb 26 January 1994 vol 236 c245W
Mr. Raynsford

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will estimate the number of lettings of spare rooms which have been made available in consequence of the rent-a-room scheme under which owners receive tax relief on certain income from lodgers.

Sir George Young

Information about the number of rooms let under the rent-a-room scheme can be obtained only from housing surveys. No data are available as yet.
