HC Deb 02 December 1987 vol 123 c632W
Mr. Chapman

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what further initiatives he will take to encourage public and private tree planting schemes.

Mr. Moynihan

I have made an additional £3 million available in the current financial year to help replace trees damaged in the storm on 16 October. I am also giving my full support to National Tree Week, which has been organised by the Tree Council.
