Mr. Frank Allaun
asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will make a statement on his proposal to reduce the rising cost subsidy for council houses.
Mr. Channon
Section 4 of the Housing Finance Act 1972 makes provision for the payment of rising cost subsidy by reference to percentages of the qualifying amount. I have not proposed any change in that provision.
