HC Deb 27 June 1995 vol 262 c613W
Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what his latest estimate of the number of homes repossessed in Wales in the last five years. [30162]

Mr. Gwilym Jones

In the first quarter of 1995, county courts in Wales made 444 mortgage possession orders together with 647 suspended orders, whereby the mortgagees are given an opportunity to clear their debts. Information is not recorded centrally on the number of cases in which mortgage possession orders led to warrants to have the defendants evicted.
