§ Mr. DobsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will publish a full list of all organisations to which his Department sent and from which it has received responses regarding the consultation paper on heavier lorries for combined road/rail transport, together with the addresses of each such organisation.
§ Mr. Key[holding answer 18 January 1994]: My Department issued over 3,000 copies of the consultation paper to more than 400 organisations, companies and individuals. These included transport industry associations, the local authority associations and many individual local authorities, transport and distribution companies and agents, user of freight services, environmental groups, the police associations and various institutes and universities with interests in transport. We received 48 responses from associations, 136 from individual organisations and five from individuals. It is not our practice to identify those organisations or individuals who respond to consultation exercises.
