Written question asked by Countess of Mar (Crossbench), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Lord Evans of Temple Guiting (Labour) on Tuesday, 1 May 2007.


Waste Management: Brofiscin Quarry

Question
asked Her Majesty's Government:Why the joint agreement made on 1 February 1972 between Monsanto and Redland Purle, to which the Government were a party, for the remediation of Brofiscin Quarry was never enforced; and whether this agreement is evidence for a claim against Solutia Incorporated in the current Monsanto bankruptcy hearings.
Answer

As this is a matter for the Welsh Assembly Government, I have written to their Minister for Environment, Planning and Countryside, Carwyn Jones AM. I will share his response with the noble Countess as soon as it is available, and place a copy in the Library of the House.
