HC Deb 25 November 1993 vol 233 c187W
Mr. Llew Smith

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what information he has on the proposals advanced by the OECD for implementation of environmental taxes in OECD member countries.

Mr. Gummer

The OECD have done a good deal of analytical work on the use member countries make of economic instruments to advance environmental policies, but I am not aware that they have made any proposals for the implementation of environmental taxes.
