HC Deb 05 December 1984 vol 69 c180W
Mr. Malone

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he proposes to begin re-examining the list of measures required within the building regulations intended to conserve fuel and power; and whether his reexamination will include requirements for floor insulation.

Sir George Young

Once the new building control system is in force next year, the content of the regulations, including the requirements for the conservation of fuel and power, will be reviewed. This review will include, among other measures, the case for extending the regulations to include general requirements for floor insulation.
