HC Deb 25 May 1994 vol 244 c152W
Mr. Llew Smith

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment when the most recent meeting of Green Ministers was held; what matters were discussed; and what decisions were taken.

Mr. Atkins

Green Ministers met on 18 May 1994 to discuss progress on green housekeeping. Ministers agreed to keep their departmental strategies up to date, to revise their purchasing guidance to emphasise environmental factors including the use of recycled paper in packaging, to improve energy usage, and to assess the practicality of developing environmental management systems. Ministers agreed to meet again later in the year to review progress.
