§ Mr. David EvansTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he has any plans to enhance his Department's sponsorship of the construction industry; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. GummerFollowing an initiative taken by my predecessor, a review of my Department's sponsorship function of the construction industry has been completed. The review looked at the current strengths and achievements of the Department's construction policy directorate and how these could be developed to meet the present and future needs of the industry. I will announce the conclusions of the review on 7 July and copies of the final report will be available in the Libraries of the House from 11 am on that day.
