§ Mr. Llew SmithTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what matters with regards to the environment he intends to raise at the G7 Economic summit in Denver. [2875]
§ Mr. Geoffrey Robinson[holding answer 10 June 1997]; Along with his colleagues my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer will be seeking to argue for policies to promote sustainable development. We will ensure sustainable economic growth only by making all policies—including importantly environmental ones—take full account of all costs and benefits, including ones relating to the environment.
