HC Deb 14 January 1976 vol 903 c145W
44. Mr. Hooley

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what calculations he has made of the import cost of raw materials required for a three-bedroom council house built to Parker Morris standards.

Mr. Freeson

Out of a total average materials cost of about £4,000 per house, a reasonable estimate would be £450 to £500, mainly for timber and copper.
