Mr. Atkins

The information is not available in the form requested. Between 1 April 1984 and 31 March 1991 statistical information on damage to SSSIs in Great Britain is set out in the annual reports of the former Nature Conservancy Council. Since 1 April 1991 similar detail for England is contained in English Nature's annual reports. Copies of annual reports are in the Library.
