HC Deb 22 January 1981 vol 997 c220W
25. Mr. Pollock

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food in view of his recent statement of Government policy on forestry, what steps he proposes to take to ensure the integration of forestry and farming.

Mr. Wiggin

Government policy already takes account of the need for new afforestation to be integrated with all other aspects of countryside management. The Forestry Commission and agricultural departments, through their advisory services, ensure that the appropriate objectives are included in forestry plans of operations.
