§ Baroness Davidasked Her Majesty's Government:
When the details of the Nature Conservancy Council's Phase 1 Habitat Survey will be publicly available and when information on the extent of each habitat it describes will be available for (a)England, Wales and Scotland as a whole, and (b)each county (or region in Scotland).
§ The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of the Environment (Lord Skelmersdale)I am advised by the Nature Conservancy Council that details of their Phase 1 Habitat Survey are made available on request as this work proceeds. However, completion of the surveys throughout Great Britain will take several years and the Nature Conservancy Council cannot at this stage forecast the eventual completion date.
