HC Deb 15 April 1975 vol 890 c91W
Mr. Moate

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he has noted the proposal on page 105 of the Dobry Report that a change of use from agricultural to leisure purposes should constitute development: and if he will consider incorporating this proposal in legislation in such a way as to ensure that the term "agricultural" would be extended to include woodlands and forestry.

Mr. John Silkin

The recommendation has been noted and is being carefully considered along with the other recommendations in the report.
