Mr. Norman

(2) if he will list the planning applications included in the Environment Agency's Annual report supplied to MAFF and his Department in June which were (a) approved, (b) rejected and (c) called in for review; [143636]

Mr. Raynsford

The Environment Agency's Report on high-level target 12—Development in areas at risk of flooding covers the period from October 1999 to March 2000. It lists 403 applications and identifies those where the local planning authority decision was in line with or contrary to Agency advice and those not yet determined. It also lists 22 appeals but does not contain information on applications called in for review. I have placed the report in the Library of the House.
