HC Deb 07 March 1973 vol 852 cc129-30W
Mr. Sydney Chapman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he is satisfied with the response so far by local authorities and public and private organisations to plant a tree in 1973 year; and if he will make a statement on activities in the first two months of the campaign.

Mr. Graham Page

There has been a most encouraging response from local authorities and other public and private organisations. A newsletter is to be published very shortly providing some examples of what has been achieved in Tree Planting Year so far. I will send a copy to my hon. Friend and have copies placed in the Library.
