HL Deb 28 July 1981 vol 423 cc748-50WA
Viscount Ingleby

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will list in the Official Report the buildings being made accessible to the disabled, covered by the Earl of Avon's answer to Lord Chelwood's question on 23rd June (col. 959); and give a progress report with details of cost.

The Earl of Avon

The list of buildings is attached. This shows progress in that schemes have been completed in 43 of the 71 towns and we now expect schemes to be completed in a further 12 this financial year. The works in a number of cases have formed part of larger schemes but the information on separate cost details cannot be found except at disproportionate cost.
