HC Deb 14 June 1978 vol 951 c535W
Mr. Brotherton

asked the Secretary of State for Defence when he expects action to supplement electric heating with solid fuel open fires in married quarters, following the experiment at two airfields in Lincolnshire.

Dr. Gilbert

The trials carried out at RAF stations Coningsby and Wittering have been completed, and the resulting information is now being studied in conjunction with a report by the Property Services Agency. We shall complete our studies as quickly as possible and, if it is decided to implement the scheme more widely, I hope that work will begin before next winter.
