Ms Quin

To ask the Secretary of state for the Environment when he next intends to meet his EU counterparts to discuss environmental pollution in central and eastern Europe. [732]

Mr. Clappison

The next meeting of EU Ministers to discuss pollution in central and eastern Europe will be held under the Italian presidency in March 1996. The meeting will consider the follow-up to last month's Sofia conference of European Environment Ministers, in which the Secretary of State and his EU counterparts played an active part.
