§ Mr. DobsonTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will place in the Library details of each major publicity campaign mounted by his Department in 1985–86 and each successive year, including in each case the objectives of the campaign, the intended audience and the outcome of the monitoring of the achievement of the intended objectives, and national research conducted for him by the Central Office of Information together with a note of the intended objectives in the campaigns in 1989–90.
§ Mr. Ridley[holding answer 2 May 1989]: I have today placed in the Library a table showing the major publicity campaigns undertaken by my Department since 1985–86, with intended objectives for all campaigns including those planned for 1989–90. A campaign would be required to publicise the offers of sale of the water authorities; this is still to be planned.
