HC Deb 28 January 1994 vol 236 cc438-9W
Mr. Llew Smith

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what complaints he has received in regard to the failure or delay in reply by the appropriate authorities to requests for information disclosure under the Environmental Information Regulations 1992 since 1 January 1993.

Mr. Atkins

Two people have written to my right hon. Friend: the Campaign for Freedom of Information about a refusal by the Radioactive Waste Management Advisory Committee to supply information about the thermal oxide reprocessing plant; and an environmental sciences student who was concerned at Her Majesty's inspectorate of pollution's delay in replying to her request.
