§ Mr. Michael Lathamasked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many public sector dwellings were completed in 1973 by industrialized methods; what percentage that represents of the total public sector programme; and what are the equivalent figures for each of the last 10 years.
§ Mr. KaufmanIndustrialised methods were used for 17,660 dwellings, representing 22.3 per cent. of all dwellings completed in 1973 for local authorities and new towns in England and Wales. Corresponding figures for 1968 to 1972 appear in Table 23 of Housing and Construction Statistics No. 7, and for earlier years from 1964 in Table 16 of Housing Statistics No. 24. These publications are available in the Library.
