Mr. Simon Hughes

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food when he next expects to designate an environmentally sensitive area in(a) England and (b) Wales; and if he will make a statement.

There are already 10 environmentally sensitive areas in England and two in Wales. My right hon. Friends the Minister and the Secretary of State for Wales plan to make announcements on the timing of further designations in the near future.
