Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what steps he has taken to vary the environmental conditions required to operate new or reopened coal-fired power stations and to encourage other responsible bodies to vary these.

None. It is the responsibility of Her Majesty's inspectorate of pollution to determine the level of atmospheric emission control equipment to be fitted to such stations.
