Mr. Jim Marshall : To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will list in the Official Report those schemes which have been assured of finance from the Housing Association Development Programme (Northern Ireland) 1989-90 together with the sums of money allocated.

Mr. Needham : The inclusion of individual schemes in the housing association development programme does not in itself guarantee that the scheme will proceed. This will depend upon compliance with agreed procedures, costs and standards and on the availability of resources. On that basis, no schemes are assured of finance. Nevertheless those schemes which have been included in the programme for possible tender approval during 1989-90, together with the capital "allocations", are as follows :


                                                |Capital allocation

In addition, a total of £4.5 million has been "allocated" in respect of a further 115 schemes which associations may take to an advanced stage of design so that they may be considered for inclusion in the next or subsequent financial year.

Mr. Jim Marshall : To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, if he will list in the Official Report those schemes which have been submitted for inclusion in the housing association development programme (Northern Ireland) 1989-90 intending to provide accommodation specifically for people who are homeless.

Disability

The Rev. Martin Smyth : To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many children in schools in Northern Ireland are defined as deaf ; and what steps are being taken to identify those who may suffer from blindness as well or from another handicap in addition to deafness.

Dr. Mawhinney : According to latest information (January 1988) there were 82 deaf pupils of compulsory school age attending grant-aided primary, secondary and


Column 628

special schools. Of these, 45 suffered from one or more additional physical handicaps. No details are available about children attending grammar schools.

Under the Education and Libraries (NI) Order 1986 it is a matter for education and library boards to identify and make provision for children with special educational needs.

The Rev. Martin Smyth : To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many deaf people are resident in mental hospitals in Northern Ireland ; how many of these have an additional handicap ; what plans have been made for their future in the community ; and if he will express these figures as a percentage of the number of residents in mental hospitals.

Mr. Needham : This information is not collected centrally. Plans for the future in the community of deaf people resident in mental hospitals are the responsibility of the health and social services boards. In drawing them up, boards take appropriate account of patients' individual needs and circumstances.

Medical Screening

The Rev. Martin Smyth : To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will make a statement about the number of medical screening units in the Province and future demand for screening.

Mr. Needham : Screening for hearing and visual defects, speech disorders and other developmental problems is an integral part of the child health surveillance programme. The physical and developmental status of children is assessed on an ongoing basis from infancy to age 14. Where abnormalities are detected children are referred to appropriate specialist services. Adults with suspected handicapping conditions are also referred to specialist services by their family doctor. Existing services have the capacity to deal with present and expected future requirements.
