HC Deb 20 March 1990 vol 169 cc525-6W
Mr. Dalyell

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on the EEC infraction proceedings against Spain in relation to the Coto Donana national park.

Mr. Maude

We strongly support the work of the European Commission in ensuring that EC environmental legislation is respected throughout the Community. We welcome the recent decision to publicise the record of member states in this area. But, except where United Kingdom interests are directly at stake, we would not wish to comment on individual cases.
