asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs how many houses were built by private enterprise in 1960, and in 1961; and how many of these were built for sale and how many for renting purposes.

162,100 houses were built privately in England and Wales in 1960 and 170,366 in 1961. I cannot say how many were built for sale and how many for renting.
