Ms Ruddock

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish summaries of the discussions and actions agreed upon following the meetings of Green Ministers. [34573]

Mr. Clappison

Green Ministers decided not to publish summaries of their discussions but agreed to publish a list of contact addresses in each Government Department where inquiries on green issues could be directed. A copy of the list is in the House Library. They also agreed to publish a series of case studies which show what measures Departments have taken to ensure that environmental considerations are taken into account in policies and programmes.
