HC Deb 19 February 1970 vol 796 c171W
Mr. Oakes

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many fire calls were made during 1969 to fire brigades in England and Wales to put out fires in derelict industrial buildings.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

Separate figures are not maintained for derelict industrial buildings. In 1968, the last year for which figures are available, 15,680 fires in derelict buildings of all types were attended by fire brigades in England and Wales.
