HC Deb 28 April 1971 vol 816 c124W
99. Mr. Crouch

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how the figures for receipts for admissions in 1970 to the monuments and historic buildings in the Government's care compare with those for 1969; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Channon

About £1,090,000 in 1970 compared with some £840,000 in 1969. These figures indicate increasing public interest in the monuments and historic buildings in the Government's care and I have every hope that this welcome trend will continue.
