HC Deb 16 April 1996 vol 275 c382W
Mr. Robert Ainsworth

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how many cases of deterioration of green lanes by vehicular use have been brought to his attention in the last year for which figures are available. [24961]

Mr. Clappison

Neither my Department nor the Department of Transport keeps statistics of this sort. Few cases of deterioration of green lanes are brought to our attention. Research currently in hand includes an attempt to assess the scale of the problem.
