HC Deb 02 December 1981 vol 14 c164W
29. Mr. Dormand

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will introduce proposals to improve access to cinemas and theatres by disabled persons.

Sir George Young

The Chronically Sick and Disabled Persons Act 1970 requires that when new buildings are erected there shall be access for the disabled. Recent legislation has strengthened this provision. My right hon. Friend has no plans for further legislation.
