HC Deb 31 January 1997 vol 289 c378W
Ms Ruddock

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage if she will list the (a) White Papers, (b) Green Papers, (c) consultation papers, (d) draft regulations and (e) circulars, for which her Department has been responsible issued in 1996 which her Department assesses could give rise, (i) directly and (ii) indirectly to significant environmental effects.

Mr. Sproat

[holding answer 27 January 1997]: The only document issued by my Department in 1996 with potential environmental effects was the Green Paper, "Protecting Our Heritage," which was published jointly with the Welsh Office. The importance of the environmentally sustainable development of tourism is reflected in the Department's tourism strategy to be published on 5 February 1997.
