HC Deb 09 February 1994 vol 237 cc303-4W
Mr. Chris Smith

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what representations he has made, in accordance with the objective of global conservation set out in the United Kingdom action plan for biodiversity, to the Governments of Canada and British Columbia over the logging of substantial areas of Canada's temperate rainforest.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

I have been asked to reply.

None. The Canadian Government and British Columbia authorities are well aware of public concern in the United Kingdom about logging.
