Dr. Edmund Marshall

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will list those local authorities in the Yorkshire and Humberside region that completed no wheelchair housing and no mobility housing in the two years ended 31 March.

Sir George Young

The information is not available in the form requested by the hon. Member. My Department's publication "Local Housing Statistics England and Wales", Nos. 58 and 62, gives the number of starts and completions for specially designed and mobility dwellings reported by all local authorities in England and Wales for the calendar years 1980 and 1981. From that it would appear that the following authorities in the Yorkshire and Humberside region have not completed any wheelchair housing or mobility housing during those years:

  • Boothferry
  • Calderdale
  • Craven
  • Great Grimsby
  • Hambleton
  • Harrogate
  • Kirklees
