45. Mr. Heathcoat-Amory

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he is satisfied with progress in developing civil defence plans.

My right hon. Friend the Home Secretary is satisfied that good progress is being made. Local authorities have been asked to complete the plans required by the 1983 regulations by the end of this year, and we shall then review the position.
