asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish in the Official Report a list of buildings in the area administered by the West Midlands Metropolitan County Council which are designated as being of historic or architectural importance.

There are 65 lists and amendments covering 1,313 buildings and I will send my hon. Friend those for any districts in which he lets me know he is interested. All lists for the West Midlands can also be inspected at the offices of the county council.
