§ Dr. Cunninghamasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will list in the Official Report the names and locations of the broadleaved woodlands clearfelled under licence for conversion to agriculture in 1982–83, 1983–84 and 1984–85 in the Forestry Commission's south-west England conservancy.
§ Mrs. Fenner[pursuant to her reply, 14 May 1985, c. 81]: The information is not available in the form requested as the Forestry Commission does not normally monitor the situation on the ground after granting a felling licence, unless replanting conditions are involved and these conditions are due to have been fulfilled. I can, however, list the woodlands for which felling licences for conversion of the land to agriculture were issued during the years in question. These are as follows:
