§ Mr. Llew SmithTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what plans he has to introduce a landfill levy.
§ Mr. MacleanWe are currently considering the responses to the report by Coopers and Lybrand into "Landfill Costs and Prices: Correcting Possible Market Distortions", published in February 1993. To assist with this, we have also commissioned a study assessing the environmental impact of landfill against other waste management options and I expect this to be completed shortly.
