HC Deb 18 October 1991 vol 196 c279W
Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects to respond to the seventh report of the Environment Select Committee (HC-263) on the EC draft directive on the landfill of waste.

Mr. Baldry

The Environment Select Committee's report is a useful contribution, both to the discussion of the draft landfill directive in Brussels, and to the ongoing task of raising the standards of United Kingdom waste management generally.

I am currently considering all the issues raised in the report and will be responding in due course.
