Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981

HC Deb 20 January 1982 vol 16 c145W

20. Mr. Andrew F. Bennett

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what financial allocation has been made for the implementation of the provisions of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.

Mr. King

Subject to parliamentary approval of the Estimate we propose that the level of grant-in-aid to the Nature Conservancy Council for 1982–83 should amount to £11.27 million. This compares with £10.047 million for 1981–82 and takes account of the provisions of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.
