HC Deb 17 January 1972 vol 829 c65W
Mr. Sillars

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what respectively are the total numbers of council and private houses in Scotland; and, in the case of each group, if he will estimate how many do not have central heating.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

There are about 900,000 publicly-owned and about 900,000 privately-owned houses in Scotland. Probably rather more than three-quarters of public authority houses and rather less than three-quarters of privately-owned houses do not have central heating.
