Mr. Bob Russell

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions when he will introduce legislation to deal with tall trees and boundary hedges in domestic gardens; and if he will make a statement. [142876]

Although it was not possible to make provision for a high hedges Bill in the Queen's Speech, we are ready to bring one forward as soon as there is space in the parliamentary timetable.
