HC Deb 22 February 1989 vol 147 cc695-6W
101. Mr. Bill Michie

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what representations he has received with regard to Government consultation on toxic waste disposal.

Mrs. Virginia Bottomley

Three consultation papers on waste disposal law have been issued. Two, issued in September 1986 and November 1988, concerned changes to the duties of producers and carriers of waste and the licensing powers of waste disposal authorities.
