HC Deb 12 March 1992 vol 205 c597W
Mr. Win Griffiths

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will take steps to introduce fiscal measures to prohibit the sale and export of ozone-depleting substances.

Mr. Maude

No. We have urged other countries to ratify the London amendment to the Montreal protocol. We are committed to phasing out the production and consumption of ozone depleting substances by the end of 1995 and are urging the Community to adopt this target.
