HC Deb 25 April 1990 vol 171 c256W
95. Mr. Martyn Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps he is taking to reduce the use of chlorofluorocarbons.

Mr. Trippier

The Montreal protocol restricts the supply of chlorofluorocarbons. In the negotiations to revise the protocol the Government are pressing for much tighter restrictions on supply, leading to a phase-out within 10 years.
