§ 57. Sir D. Walker-Smithasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he is aware of the concern felt in such areas of the insufficient consideration given to aspects of amenity in street lighting schemes in rural areas; and whether he will issue guidance on the matter and stress the desirability of providing non-distorting light in such areas wherever practicable.
§ Mr. SpeedThe use of white light in all rural areas could not be justified economically. I propose to issue guidance to lighting authorities on the use of white light in conservation and other sensitive areas.
