HC Deb 28 April 1947 vol 436 c181W
123. Mr. Renton

asked the Minister of Health to what extent the recommendations of the British Standards Institution are being followed by local authorities when obtaining components for the housing programme.

Mr. J. Edwards

The use of the standard specifications covering a wide range of products is obligatory in all housing work undertaken by local authorities, and approval of schemes is conditional upon compliance with these specifications.
