Mr. J. Wells

asked the Minister of Public Building and Works what steps he is taking to preserve panelling and other woodwork from damage by excessive control-heating temperatures in buildings under his control, particularly 10 Downing Street and 7 Old Palace Yard.

Mr. Rippon

The controlled temperature is such that there is no risk of damage to panelling and woodwork from excessive heat.
