§ Mr. Geraint Howellsasked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make a statement on measures which his Department is taking to combat the effects of acid rain in Wales.
§ Mr. Nicholas EdwardsThe Government's first priority is to establish causes before effective control measures can be determined. To this end my Department participates in acid rain research and I would refer the hon. Gentleman to the reply given to the hon. Member for Caernarfon (Mr. Wigley) on 12 June 1984, at column406.
