§ Mrs. GormanTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps he takes to ensure that London's position is fully represented within the discussions that affect it within government.
§ Mr. HeseltineI take all appropriate steps to ensure fair representation of London's interest. Within my Department I have a London regional office to advise me on matters directly affecting London and I consult widely, particularly with London boroughs, their associations and many other bodies with London-wide concerns.
