asked the Secretary of State for Wales when authorities which have alleged deficits in their housing revenue accounts under the Housing Finance Act 1972 should initiate a progression towards fair rents, taking into consideration Part IV Section 62 of the Act.

Local authorities now determine rents in accordance with the provisions of Section 113 of the Housing Act 1957 as amended by Section 1 of the Housing Rents and Subsidies Act 1975, which repealed Part VI, Section 62 of the Housing Finance Act 1972.
