Ordnance Survey Review Committee

HC Deb 31 January 1980 vol 977 cc758-9W

Mr. Faulds

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will accept the recommendations contained in chapter 17 of the Ordnance Survey review committee regarding archaeological activities; and, if so, whether he will take urgent steps to implement these recommendations.

Mr. Fox

My right hon. Friend intends to make a statement fairly soon on the recommendations of the Ordnance Survey review committee. I cannot anticipate that statement.
