HC Deb 03 December 1969 vol 792 cc317-8W
Mr. Roy Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what advice he has given to local authorities in Wales on the subject of installing central heating in council houses particularly in respect of retirement pensioners many of whom are in need of such an arrangement but who are in receipt of rent rebates or supplementary allowances.

Mr. George Thomas

Space heating to Parker Morris Standards in council houses now being built is a mandatory requirement. I have given no advice to local authorities in Wales about its provision in existing council houses.
