HC Deb 12 November 1990 vol 180 c74W
25. Mr. Peter Bottomley

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy if he will estimate the proportion of pensioners' homes lacking basic draughtproofing or insulation.

Mr. Baldry

Surveys indicate that of those households where the housewife is aged 65 or over, around 10 per cent. have no loft insulation and some 70 per cent. lack draughtproofing.
