HC Deb 02 December 1993 vol 233 c652W
Mr. Knapman

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment when the Government will publish their strategy for sustainable development.

Mr. Gummer

We have almost completed our preparation of a sustainable development strategy for the United Kingdom and now propose to publish it after the House returns in January. We will publish the United Kingdom's climate change programme, biodiversity action plan and forestry programme at the same time.
