HC Deb 24 October 1988 vol 139 c91W
Mr. Tony Banks

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment which subject within his Department's range of responsibilities has generated most representations from the public in the past 12 months; and if he is able to estimate the numbers by correspondence and telephone calls.

Mr. Ridley

The Department receives a large number of representations from the public on a wide range of subjects. The information requested could be obtained only at disproportionate costs.
