HC Deb 03 December 1968 vol 774 c401W
10. Mr. Grant

asked the Minister of Public Building and Works what action he proposes to take on the recommendation of the Phelps Brown Report regarding firmer advance commitments on the construction programme of the public sector; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. Mellish

The Government were already considering this question before the Report was published. It would be extremely difficult to review the whole field of public sector construction in one exercise, and we are therefore concentrating initially on the Government's office building programme.
