HC Deb 01 July 1982 vol 26 c373W
Mr. Heddle

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what contribution his Department is making to any consideration by Her Majesty's Government of the recommendations of the Flowers Commission report on "Coal and the Environment"; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. John Moore

The report on "Coal and the Environment" by the Commission on Energy and the Environment was submitted to the Secretaries of State for Environment, Energy, Scotland and Wales. My own Department, in consultation with these other Departments, is closely involved with the preparation of the Government's response.
