HC Deb 19 May 1982 vol 24 c135W
35. Mr. Hooley

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what progress he is making with his proposals for a new body to administer historic monuments and buildings of special aesthetic or architectural merit.

Mr. Heseltine

I am considering the way forward in the light of the many comments received in response to my recent consultation paper. I hope to announce decisions fairly soon.
