HC Deb 09 April 1981 vol 2 c349W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment which buildings of Government Departments have entrance and exit facilities for the physically disabled generally and those in wheel chairs in particular; and if he will take steps to adapt all Government buildings to allow easy access for the disabled.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

The information sought is not readily available. The Property Services Agency is, however, continuing to follow through the programme announced in 1978 to adapt existing Government buildings for access by disabled people, and new buildings are constructed or adapted to meet the needs of disabled people wherever practicable.
