HC Deb 16 February 1995 vol 254 c763W
Mr. Llwyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if it is his policy to implement in Wales the United Kingdom strategy for sustainable development in January 1994; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Gwilym Jones

The Government's strategy for sustainable development, published in January 1994, covers all parts of the United Kingdom; and provides a framework for action. In line with this, on 31 January 1995, my right hon. Friend published "The Environmental Agenda for Wales" setting out our plans for striking a sensible balance between development and conservation needs in the Principality. A copy of the agenda is available in the Library of the House.
