Mr. Bevan
asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects to publish the Housing Bill.
Mr. Heseltine
I expect to introduce the Bill before the House rises for the Christmas Recess.
Mr. Bevan
Will my right hon. Friend ensure that in the Bill there will be a further development of home improvements so as to increase substantially the housing stock in the private sector?
Mr. Heseltine
A number of proposals will be included in the legislation for that purpose.
