Austin Currie
Ceist:146 Mr. Currie asked the Minister for the Environment the action he intends to take on the reported statement by Chris Patten, the British Secretary of State for the Environment, at the North Sea Conference in The Hague, that, in two formal meetings with him, he had not raised the issue of Sellafield; whether Mr. Patten's statement is factual; the conclusions which should be drawn from the alleged remark of the success of the Government's campaign against Sellafield; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
