Vol. 360 No. 2

Written Answers. - Heat Insulation Standards.

20.

Mr. J. Leonard

asked the Minister for the Environment if he proposes to improve the standard of heat insulation required for local authority and grant-assisted houses; and, if so, the value he now proposes to establish.

Minister for the Environment (Mr. Kavanagh)

I do not propose to change the standard of heat insulation required for local authority and grant-assisted houses. Present standards as set out in the proposed building regulations are considered reasonable and adequate.
