HC Deb 14 June 1972 vol 838 c317W
77. Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what study he has arranged to consider the appropriate controls over uses of pesticides outside agriculture and food storage; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Graham Page

A scientist is to be seconded to my Department specifically to undertake a survey of the nature and extent of non-agricultural uses of pesticides and the possible need for appropriate controls.
