Friend, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for the Environment, listed those research projects which concern acid rain and which are being undertaken or supported by the Government in answer to a question from the hon. Member for Caerphilly (Mr. Davies) on 11 November 1985 at columns 19–21.
