HC Deb 03 April 2003 vol 402 c798W
Mr. Djanogly

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what recent representations she has received on her Department's agri-environment schemes. [106698]

Mr. Meacher

The Department has received 150 external responses to the consultation on a draft framework for future agri-environment schemes in England that closed at the end of February 2003. These responses are currently being analysed and we will publish the results once this exercise is complete.

Defra also continues to receive a small number of individual representations on this subject.
