HC Deb 17 October 1973 vol 861 c165W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what answers he has had from local authorities to the consultative document he circulated which proposed the inclusion of the conservation of fuel as a purpose for which new Building Regulations could be made; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Channon

The local authority associations in England and Wales were in general agreement with the proposal to enable Building Regulations to include thermal insulation requirements in the interest of fuel economy.
