HC Deb 07 August 1975 vol 897 c440W
Mr. Fairbairn

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make immediate arrangements to disconnect the automatic light switches which turn on the lights at St. Andrew's House at 5 a.m., so that the lights need only be switched on when required.

Mr. William Ross

I assume the hon. and learned Member means New St. Andrew's House. The lights in that building are in "banked" systems but are not automatically controlled. When electrical work in the building is completed more economical use of the lighting will be possible.
