Mr. Spearing

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects the Royal Commission on Environmental Pollution to present a report on the implications for its work of the entry of the United Kingdom into the European Economic Community.

The Government is studying the implications of entry to the E.E.C. for the United Kingdom's pollution control policies. It is for the Royal Commission to consider what attention they wish to give to this matter.
