HC Deb 20 January 1984 vol 52 cc351-2W
Mr. Richard Page

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what comparisons have been made by his Department of the rental charges for (a) industrial and (b) commercial property in the United Kingdom against other industrial nations particularly in the area of small units of 5,000 sq ft and under; and if he will publish any details.

Mr. Macfarlane

No such comparisons are made by the Government, although details of rent and other occupation costs are published from time to time by private sector bodies.
