HC Deb 14 March 1995 vol 256 c536W
Mr. Barnes

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the colliery sites which have been reclaimed since 1990 under the provisions of the Moynihan agreement.

Sir Paul Beresford

I understand from British Coal that the colliery sites reclaimed, or in the process of reclamation, since 1990 are Barnsley Main, Creswell, Dearne Valley, Denby Grange and Treeton. There are a further 13 sites where British Coal has concluded, or is in the process of concluding negotiations on appropriate reclamation schemes.
