HC Deb 12 June 1967 vol 748 c18W
95. Mr. Brian Parkyn

asked the Minister of Public Building and Works what study is being made by his Department of the use of glass fibre reinforced plastics in the housebuilding and construction industries; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Prentice

No specific study of the use of glass fibre reinforced plastics is being made by my Department but the Building Research Station has made a study of the weathering behaviour of this material and a good deal of development work is going on in the industry. My Department is keeping abreast of these developments.
