HC Deb 18 June 1990 vol 174 c419W
Mr. Dobson

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment (1) if, pursuant to the answer of 6 June,Official Report, columns 648–49, he will list the information collected by the Property Services Agency for its own energy management purposes concerning the use of energy in Government buildings;

(2) if he will list the information which was collected by the Property Services Agency about the use of energy in Government buildings in the period up to 30 March.

Mr. Chope

The information collected by the PSA for its own energy management is the monthly consumption and cost of all fuels and water used in buildings in the United Kingdom where PSA is the major occupier.

Similar information was maintained for the great majority of buildings on the Government civil estate, for which the PSA used to pay the bills. The MOD has always paid its own bills. With the untying of Departments from the PSA, Departments pay their own bills and the PSA no longer has access to this information.
