Mr. Simon Hughes

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, pursuant to his answer of 10 June,Official Report, columns 187–88 what publicity there has been for S.I. No. 1013 (1980) to the heating and ventilation industry, owners of non-residential buildings and trades unions; what inspections are carried out to ensure compliance with statutory instrument; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Maclean

Reference to the statutory maximum legal heating limit of 19 C is included in the EEO's publication "Energy Efficiency in Buildings (Offices)." No inspections are carried out to ensure compliance with SI No. 1013. The Energy Efficiency Office encourages consumers to take cost-effective energy efficiency measures by providing independent and authoritative advice through a range of initiatives and programmes.
