HC Deb 23 June 1998 vol 314 c480W
18. Mr. Welsh

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement on the level of investment in public sector housing in Scotland since 1990. [45588]

Mr. McLeish

We are already tackling the legacy of under-investment in housing which we inherited. We have committed an extra £66 million, including £45 million for New Housing Partnerships. We are also looking at housing investment within the Comprehensive Spending Review.
