HC Deb 16 March 1971 vol 813 c310W
Mr. Chichester-Clark

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what estimate has been made of the capacity at which firms providing system-built dwellings in the public sector are currently operating; and what action he proposes to take in that regard.

Mr. Amery

As regards the first part of the question I have no current estimate of the capacity at which firms providing system-built dwellings in the public sector are operating, although I am aware that some may be operating at a lower level than in recent years. As for the second part, I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given on 17th February to the hon. Member for Bishop Auckland (Mr. Boyden).—[Vol. 811, c. 448.]
