John Healey: To ask the Secretary of State for
Communities and Local Government, what estimate he has made of the cost of
processing and validating local authority data on the sale of higher value
council homes.
Brandon Lewis: To cover the cost of providing the data
about housing stock, we made a one-off grant payment of £5,000 to each local
authority with a Housing Revenue Account. No estimate has been made about the
ongoing cost of keeping this data up-to-date. The processing and validating of
the data is being carried out by departmental officials as part of policy
development.
