HC Deb 10 December 1992 vol 215 c754W
Mrs. Anne Campbell

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what assessment he has made of the standards and regulations which need to be defined for the United Kingdom and the EC in order to provide a basis for sustainable agriculture; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Curry

"Promoting Sustainable Agriculture and Rural Development" is the title of one chapter of "Agenda 21" which was agreed at the Earth Summit in June. The United Kingdom's response to "Agenda 21" will be covered in a report to the Sustainable Development Commission which will be submitted by the end of 1993. The Department will be contributing to this report as appropriate.
