HC Deb 23 April 1975 vol 890 c313W
Mr. Woof

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what advice he has given to local authorities concerning the desirability of using old buildings following reorganisation.

Mr. John Silkin

My right hon. Friend pointed out on 26th February 1975—[Vol. 887, c. 481.1—that extravagance on new buildings was undesirable. I am sure this will be in the minds of local authorities without the need for further advice.
