HC Deb 23 July 1993 vol 229 c494W
Mr. Ainger

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list those coastal and offshore sites which his Department is considering for inclusion on a list of special areas of conservation under the EC habitats directive; and if he will place in the Library a map identifying them.

Mr. Yeo

The Joint Nature Conservation Committee is co-ordinating work of the statutory nature conservation agencies in identifying candidates for the United Kingdom national list of sites under the habitats directive. It is not yet in a position to make recommendations.
