New Houses Mr. Rankin asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many new houses will be completed by the end of 1970 and ready for occupation; and what will be the number still on the waiting list at the same date. Mr. Gordon Campbell About 33,500 houses were completed in the first nine months of 1970; I cannot say how many more will be completed in the last quarter. I am asking local authorities for information about outstanding housing needs.
