HC Deb 02 December 1994 vol 250 cc921-2W
Mr. Pawsey

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment whether a change is to be made to the scheme of fees and charges for integrated pollution control operated by Her Majesty's inspectorate of pollution.

Mr. Atkins

A minor change to the HMIP integrated pollution control fees and charges scheme 1994–95 is to take effect retrospectively from 1 June 1994. It introduces a provisional application fee of nil for a number of processes included under IPC by the Environmental Protection (Prescribed Processes and Substances) Regulations, pending further consultation on possible amendment to those regulations.

Copies of the amendment to the scheme are being placed in the Library of both Houses.
