§
That this House takes note of European Community Documents Nos. 9491/93 and 7511/95, and of the unnumbered Explanatory Memorandum submitted by the Department of the Environment on 2nd June 1995, relating to integrated pollution prevention and control; welcomes the Common Position achieved on this proposal on 22nd June; regrets the inclusion of certain activities in the Directive's scope, such as intensive livestock farming, food production and some industrial sectors, which do not readily lend themselves to this integrated approach; but congratulates the Government on the Common Position as a whole, which will secure the application in Europe of an innovative British approach to pollution control.—[Mr. Freeman.]
