HC Deb 12 January 1976 vol 903 cc16-28W
Mr. Andrew F. Bennett

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish an estimate in the Official Report of the expenditure each local authority is expected to incur in 1975–76, 1976–77, 1977–78 and 1978–79 in dealing with the problems relating to failures in high alumina cement, as submitted by the local authority associations.

Mr. Freeson,

pursuant to his reply [Official Report, 19th December 1975; Vol. 902, c. 900], gave the following information:

The estimates given below were obtained from local authorities at the request of the Public Sector Working Party on High Alumina Cement Concrete. They are likely to require revision as more precise information about the remedial work required becomes available.
