HC Deb 03 November 1997 vol 300 c54W
Mrs. Brinton

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what plans he is considering for changes in the allocation of responsibility for the provision of transport and other services, with special reference to water for new housing developments, particularly in rural areas. [13007]

Mr. Raynsford

We have no current plans for changes. We are, however, looking at these and other issues mainly in the context of the work on our integrated transport strategy and in our consideration of the responses to last year's green paper on household growth.
