HC Deb 18 March 1976 vol 907 c584W
Mr. Bradford

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, in view of the Government's policy to conserve energy, what steps he intends taking to permit cavity wall installation in Northern Ireland on the same basis as, and in parity, with the rest of the United Kingdom.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

Steps have already been taken to relax the enforcement of the Building Regulations so as to permit cavity wall insulation whenever it is safe to do so, and an amendment of the Regulations is being considered.
