HC Deb 17 January 1983 vol 35 c3W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

asked the Secretary of State for Industry whether he will consider introducing grants for roof insulation to industry.

Mr. MacGregor

The Government already encourage the insulation of industrial buildings through 100 per cent. first year tax allowances. Roof insulation is a low risk investment with a short pay-back period and a long life and sufficient incentive therefore already exists. The Department of Industry has no plans for further support in this area.
