HC Deb 18 July 1996 vol 281 c635W
Mr. Elletson

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if the Pesticides Safety Directorate has revised its framework document since its launch as an executive agency on 1 April 1993. [38777]

Mr. Douglas Hogg

The Pesticides Safety Directorate has revised its framework document with effect from 1 April 1996. The revised document, a copy of which will be placed in the Library of the House, reflects the changes and developments that have occurred since the directorate's launch as an agency three years ago. The changes will help the agency to build upon its record of success in the coming years.
