HC Deb 18 April 1972 vol 835 c79W
Mr. Laurance Reed

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many fire calls were made during 1971 to fire brigades in England and Wales to put out fires in derelict buildings.

Mr. Lane

I regret that this information is not yet available. In 1970 fire brigades in England and Wales attended 18,271 fires in derelict buildings.
