HC Deb 15 May 1980 vol 984 cc615-6W
Mr. Peter Robinson

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he is satisfied with the performance of the 14 experimental dwellings erected by the Northern Ireland Housing Executive at New Mossley, Newtownabbey; and what are his intentions for the future regarding timber frame and volumetric factory-produced housing.

Mr. Goodhart

These are primarily matters for the Northern Ireland Housing Executive and I am asking the chairman to reply to the hon. Member about the performance of the experimental dwellings. I would be prepared to consider proposals by the Northern Ireland Housing Executive for the use of volumetric housing in appropriate circumstances.
