HC Deb 30 January 1992 vol 202 c645W
Mr. Flynn

To ask the Prime Minister if he will list the organisations invited, and the criteria for inviting them, to his meeting with non-governmental organisations on 5 February to explore the prospects for the United Nations conference on environment and development in Rio de Janeiro in June.

Mr. MacGregor

I have been asked to reply.

Participants in the seminar on 5 February have been invited in their personal capacity, not as representatives of organisations. Leading figures from environment and development groups and business were asked to nominate appropriate individuals to receive invitations to the seminar. The choice of whom to nominate was left entirely to them.
