HC Deb 19 October 1973 vol 861 cc339-40W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement on the enforcement of fire regulations in Scottish hospitals.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

New hospital construction must conform with the Building Standards (Scotland) Regula- tions, which include provision for structural fire safety and means of escape from fire. All hospital authorities have received guidance on the general fire precautions which should be observed in hospitals.
