HC Deb 14 June 1972 vol 838 c319W
90. Sir Gilbert Longden

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what progress has been made in the research to replace non-biodegradable materials by easily destructible materials.

Mr. Peter Walker

On the understanding that my hon. Friend is referring to degradable plastics, my information from the Science Research Council is that research at Aston University, supported by the council, is continuing.
