§ Mr. MeacherTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what representations he has received from non-governmental organisations regarding the development of the United Kingdom's national plan on forests; and how he intends to involve non-governmental organisations in the process.
§ Sir Hector Monro[holding answer 27 January 1993]: I have been asked to reply.
I have received one letter on this subject, from Friends of the Earth.
The Forestry Commission will be co-ordinating the preparation of the national plan for the implementation of the forest principles agreed in Rio de Janeiro, and will seek the views of non-governmental organisations before it is completed.
