HC Deb 03 May 1990 vol 171 cc614-5W
Mr. Pike

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if his Department has had any recent consultations with North West Water plc regarding the proposed Rossall Point long sea outfall; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Heathcoat-Amory

The applications for consent to discharge in connection with the proposed long sea outfall are still before my right hon. Friend, and it would not be proper for me to comment on them at this stage.
