Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they have yet set up a department of environmental analysis in the Treasury, similar to those in the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food and the Department of Energy referred to in their response to the Bruntland Report, and if not, when they propose doing so.

The Secretary of State for Trade and Industry (Lord Young of Graffham)

There are no plans to establish a department of environmental analysis in the Treasury.
