§ Mr. Dorrell[holding answer 5 April 1995]: The green Minister for my Department is Viscount Astor. My Department, the English Tourist Board, and the Countryside and Rural Development Commissions have commissioned consultants to produce a study on the local visitor management initiatives set up since the 1991 Maintaining the Balance report. This will result in the publication of a good practice guide later this year. My Department is in regular contact with other Departments on environmental issues which affect its policy interests.
