§ Mr. Corbettasked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will now announce his proposals on quality assurance in the construction industry, with special reference to type approvals, following his Department's conference on the topic about two years ago.
§ Mr. FreesonAs I told the hon. Member for Melton (Mr. Latham) on 30th November—[Vol. 921, c. 721—we are considering the possibility of setting up a system of type approvals, which could form an important part of arrangements for quality assurance generally. I will make an announcement as soon as possible.
