HC Deb 17 March 1994 vol 239 c810W
Dr. Lynne Jones

Mr. Michael Forsyth

The Department and the Health and Safety Executive already answer many hundreds of thousands of inquiries each year, through, for example, their "public enquiry point" service. The code of practice will reinforce and build upon existing arrangements for the provision of information to the public.
