HC Deb 24 April 1978 vol 948 cc443-4W
Mr. Hooley

asked the Secretary of State for Energy whether the results of an aerial survey of Sheffield into heat loss from multi-storey buildings will be published; and if similar surveys will be carried out elsewhere.

Dr. John Cunningham

The aerial infra-red survey, recently conducted as a research exercise by the Harwell laboratory with support from the Department, surveyed the premises of certain organisations which were participating technically and/or financially in the exercise. A multi-storey building of the University of Sheffield, which has been the subject of other energy studies, was included. A report will be published.

There are at present no firm plans to conduct more surveys: these will be considered further when results have been assessed.
