HC Deb 08 May 1985 vol 78 c415W
26. Mrs. Renée Short

asked the Secretary of State for Environment why the contribution of his Department to the Comité Euro-International du Béton has been reduced.

Sir George Young

The Government's contribution to the British National Committee (BNC) of the Comité Euro-International du Beton (CEB) via the Property Services Agency increased from £2,000 in 1980 to £3,600 in 1984. As the BNC has now opted for a less expensive membership classification in the CEB, a reduced contribution will be appropriate in 1985.
