HC Deb 19 June 1990 vol 174 c473W
Mr. Wray

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what studies have been published in each year since 1980 by his Department identifying means of(a) transport for passengers and (b) manufactured goods from Britain to Europe by the least environmentally damaging means; and what specific criteria have been used in order to make such assessment.

Mr. Atkins

We have not published any specific studies on the movement of people or goods from Britain to Europe by the least environmentally damaging means. However, a number of Government publications include information on the environmental aspects of different modes of travel.
