Local authorities have powers, under section 11 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1992 to make available housing loans for, inter alia, the construction or acquisition of houses. However, there is no scheme for making loans for the replacement of windows and I have no plans to introduce such a scheme.
