HC Deb 28 June 1972 vol 839 c341W
44. Mr. Sydney Chapman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what programme he has for the environmental improvement of land in the ownership of the British Railways Board adjacent to railway lines.

Mr. Eyre

My right hon. Friend has drawn the board's attention to the special assistance for the improvement of unsightly land under "Operation Eyesore", and has invited its participation in Tree Planting Year. The board is co-operating in the "Keep Britain Tidy" campaign.
