§ Mr. Banksasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is his latest estimate of the percentage of (a) homes and (b) Government buildings which can be classified as having adequate insulation.
§ Sir George YoungIt is impossible to estimate the percentage of homes with adequate insulation because adequacy would depend on individual circumstances.
For the Government estate the PSA has a continuing programme of improving insulation on a cost-effective basis which is being implemented as fast as resources permit. At present some 90 per cent. of Government buildings can be classified as having adequate insulation on this basis.
