HC Deb 14 November 1996 vol 285 cc285-6W
Mr. Tony Lloyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what representation she has received, and what response he has made, in respect of the proposals to build an emergency jetty in the north of Montserrat; and if he will make a statement. [4078]

Dr. Liam Fox

A number of representations were received from residents of Montserrat and others regarding the environmental considerations of building an emergency evacuation jetty in Little bay. As with all such projects, the plans were subjected to an environmental impact study. The results of this were taken into account when the Government of Montserrat's planning authority approved the project on 30 October.
