HC Deb 19 May 1975 vol 892 c230W
Mr. Fox

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will now correct the figure of 2 per cent. given by him in the Official Report, column 752, 13th February 1975, as the percentage of bricks used in the construction of inner leaves in cavity walls.

Mr. Kaufman

No such correction is required. While about 10 per cent. of the inner leaves of cavity walls have, in recent years, been made of brick, this is likely, as I said on 13th February, to represent only about 2 per cent. of total brick production.
