HC Deb 29 November 1971 vol 827 c26W
Mr. Eadie

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland why his Department has refused grants in modernisation programmes of pre-war houses for installation of coal-fired central heating; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

Government contributions are available towards the cost of coal-fired or other central heating where its provision is part of the general improvement of a house.

If the hon. Member has a particular case in mind I suggest that he writes to me.
