§ Sir John StanleyTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what are the terms of reference of the study commissioned by his Department into the blighting effects on home owners of landfill gas sites; when this study will be completed; and whether it will be published.
Mr. Tripper[holding answer 24 January 1992]The terms of reference are to examine examples of blight and public concern which have already occurred in relation to specific contaminated sites, including gassing landfills; and to identify the nature and form of information and guidance that will be required.
A draft report has just been received by the Department. The findings of the study will be used in preparing a programme of information and publicity for the general public, and in guidance for local authorities.
