HC Deb 30 November 1978 vol 959 c354W
53. Mr. Sainsbury

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will now introduce an order extending the operation of the Fire Precautions Act 1971 to nursing homes registered under the Nursing Homes Act 1975 and to disabled or old persons' homes registered under the National Assistance Act 1948.

Dr. Summerskill:

We hope to be in a position to make a statement about future designations under the Act fairly early in the new year.
