Ceist:58 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for the Environment if he will make new regulations allowing local authorities sell houses without fee simple in cases where they have a problem with the fee simple and where the ground landlord cannot be traced in view of the fact that a number of tenant purchase procedures throughout the country have been held up; and if he will consider an arrangement whereby local authorities could sell the houses to their tenants on condition that the fee simple would be passed on to the purchaser subsequently when the land came into the possession of the local authority.
