62. Mr. Vaneasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what advice he has given to local authorities regarding the advantages of double windows in public buildings or housing estates for which they are responsible, both in the interest of the comfort of the 17W people working or living in such buildings and because of the substantial savings in fuel which would be possible.
§ Mr. SandysAdvice to local authorities has been confined to thermal insulation of roof space, floors and walls, since this gives greater heat savings for the expenditure than double-glazing and involves no additional maintenance cost.
