HC Deb 05 December 2001 vol 376 c364W
Mr. Bercow

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what the cost is in 2001–02 of his Department's environmental strategy. [16935]

Ms Blears

The Department supports the Government's strategy to put sustainable development—of which environmental matters are but one strand—at the heart of all its business. All activity related to environmental policy and operational matters is an integral part of departmental business and cannot be costed as a discrete item.
