HC Deb 26 March 1969 vol 780 cc306-7W
42. Mr. Hugh Jenkins

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what proportion of the cost of reconstructing Ronan Point type blocks will be carried by the original construction companies.

Mr. MacColl

Whether a contractor is liable for any part of the cost of strengthening an existing block, or one under construction, depends on the terms of his contract and no general answer can be given.
