HC Deb 08 April 1952 vol 498 c211W
91. Sir H. Williams

asked the Minister of Works the reason for the estimated cost of fuel for the Houses of Parliament buildings rising from £18,000 in 1951–52 to £25,400 in 1952–53.

Mr. Eccles

The rise in the estimated cost of fuel for the year 1952–53 is due to the increased cost of fuel oil. Estimated consumption is unchanged.
