Rental Deposits
Mr. Paice : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what consultation he has had concerning the National Consumer Council report on rental deposits ; and if he will make a statement.
Column 23
Mr. Yeo : My hon. Friend the Member for Worcestershire, South (Mr. Spicer) when he was Minister for Housing and Planning, met the chairman of the National Consumer Council to discuss the report, and discussions have also taken place at official level. We have agreed to explore with the National Consumer Council and other bodies the possibility of a voluntary rental deposit scheme.Sellafield
Dr. Kim Howells : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what the geological investigations of the land forms in the environs of British Nuclear Fuel's plant at Sellafield have indicated with respect to their suitability for deep dry storage of irradiated waste ; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Baldry : Site investigations for UK Nirex Ltd's deep repository for low and intermediate-level radioactive waste are currently under way at Sellafield. It is too early to say whether the site is suitable for the construction of a repository. Phase 1 of the site investigations is expected to be completed by the end of 1991.
Pesticides
Mr. Simon Hughes : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will make it his policy for owners of land to be made legally responsible for offences committed by people in their employment in respect of offences relating to endangering wildlife and keeping pesticides illegally under the Wildlife and Countryside Act.
Mr. Baldry : The Government have no plans at present to introduce legislation to amend the relevant provisions of the Wildlife and Countryside Act. The keeping of pesticides is governed by regulations made under the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985 for which my right hon. Friend the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food is responsible. It is an offence for any person, without reasonable excuse, to cause or permit another to contravene those regulations.
West Yorkshire Fire and Civil Defence Authority
Mrs. Peacock : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what representations he has received from the West Yorkshire fire and civil defence authority on his proposed financial settlement for 1991-92 ; if he will publish details of those representations ; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Key : We have received a number of representations from the West Yorkshire fire and civil defence authority on our proposals for the revenue support grant settlement for 1991-92, including those put to me when I met a delegation from the authority on 28 November. It is for the authority to make public its representations if it so chooses.
We are proposing to increase the authority's standard spending assessment by £6.2 million to £44.1 million, which we believe to be an appropriate assessment of the costs of providing the fire service in West Yorkshire. We shall carefully consider all the
representations received before taking our decisions on the settlement.
Column 24
Housing Corporation
Mr. Robert G. Hughes : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will give details of the Housing Corporation's approved development programme for 1991-92.
Sir George Young : My right hon. Friend the Member for Bath (Mr. Patten), the then Secretary of State, announced on 8 November the allocation of additional resources to the Housing Corporation to enable housing associations to provide more subsidised housing, with special emphasis on meeting the needs of the homeless. Gross expenditure by the Housing Corporation is expected to exceed £2 billion in 1993-94, a 65 per cent. increase over the current year, with a target of 40,000 completions in that year.
This is a clear indication both of the Government's commitment to the housing association movement as the main providers of new subsidised homes, and of our determination to tackle the problem of homelessness.
I have today approved the Housing Corporation's proposals for the overall shape of its approved development programme for 1991-92. A further announcement will be made early in the new year about the regional allocation of resources, once I have received the corporation's detailed proposals.
The broad outline of the corporation's proposals confirms the priority that is being accorded to the problem of homelessness by the Government and their agencies. About half the total number of new homes for rent will be targeted on the homeless. The corporation's rural programme will also be maintained and increased in future years.
It is important that the large investment which the Government are making in the housing association movement should be employed efficiently. The programme shows a further increase in the proportion of schemes for rent funded jointly with the private sector, providing greater leverage of resources for the public sector input. The corporation is also committed to achieving efficiency gains of at least 5 per cent. over three years through, among other things, greater attention to cost competition in the selection of bids. The introduction of the new grant regime under the Housing Act 1988 has been a major task. The corporation's early problems in programming its expenditure are now being resolved, and I am confident that it is able to respond positively to the enhanced role it now has in implementing the Government's housing policy. The breakdown of the approved development programme--ADP--for 1991-92 and provisional plans for the following two years is as follows :
£ million

Amenity Trees
Mr. Peter Bottomley : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what measures the Government intend to take in order to ensure the continued safeguarding of amenity trees.
Mr. Baldry : Jointly with the Welsh Office, my Department has today issued a consultation paper setting out our proposals to enhance the effectiveness of the tree preservation order system and to clarify and streamline the relevant statutory provisions and procedures. The paper also gives details of the Government's proposal to give powers to local planning authorities to make hedgerow management orders to safeguard key hedgerows, with payment to farmers or others for upkeep. I have arranged for copies of the paper to be placed in the Library of the House.
School Facilities
Mr. Pendry : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will make it his policy to bring forward amendments to the Local Government and Housing Act 1990 so that capital investment in schools' facilities by a commercial concern or major voluntary club as part of a dual-use agreement is not treated as a capital receipt to the local education authority.
Mr. Key [holding answer 14 December 1990] : No. There is no reason why this type of investment should necessarily result in a capital receipt for the local education authority.
Science Parks
Mr. Sheerman : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how much of the available EC resources for science park development has been taken up by local authorities in Britain.
Mr. Baldry [holding answer 14 December 1990] : Local authorities have utilised EC resources in support of science park development, but precise information could be provided only at disproportionate cost.

Opinion Surveys
Mr. Dobson : To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will list any opinion surveys conducted by, for or on behalf of his Department since 1 January 1985 giving the date and purpose of each survey.
Mr. Eggar : The policy evaluation projects which have been or are being through the Department's research budget since 1 January 1985 and which have included, among other elements of investigation, gathering opinions are :
Year started and project 1985 Expectations of Higher Education Survey of Special Educational Needs in Further and Higher Education 1986 Survey of Careers Graduates Study of Management Education, Education and Training 1987 Education and Training of Craftspeople Undergraduate Income and Expenditure Survey Youth Cohort Study-3rd Cohort 1988 Demand for Qualified Labour; Employer Interviews Demand for Highly Qualified Manpower: Survey of Employers 1989 Under Fives Research Student Income and Expenditure Survey 1988-89 Youth Cohort Study-4th Cohort National Child Development Study-Phase 5 Charging for School Activities 1990 Surveying Out of Service Teachers: Pilot Study Young People's Intention to Enter Higher Education
Student Loans Company
Mr. Pawsey : To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he has received the directors' report and financial statements from the Student Loans Company.
Mr. Alan Howarth : Yes, following the company's annual general meeting which was held on 5 December 1990. Copies of the report and financial statements are being placed in the Libraries of both Houses of Parliament.
Capital Expenditure
Mr. Pawsey : To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will make a statement on capital expenditure for 1991-92 on schools and further education establishments, including the voluntary aided sector.
Column 42
Mr. Kenneth Clarke : Local education authorities have today been informed of their annual capital guidelines for 1991-92, and of the allocations for capital spending by the governors of voluntary-aided and special agreement schools in their area. These figures again amount to a big increase in local authorities' borrowing power for education capital expenditure and in grant for the governors of voluntary aided schools after substantial increases last year. Annual capital guidelines (ACGs) for education will total £538 million compared with £485 million in 1990-91, an increase of 11 per cent.
£472 million is available for schools--an increase of 15 per cent.-- and £66 million for further education.
Within the schools sector, I have again given priority to : committed expenditure on work covered by allocations in earlier years ; new projects to provide new school places in areas of population growth ; new projects to implement cost-effective schemes to remove surplus places.
All remaining resources have again been distributed by formula to contribute towards remedying deficiencies in existing school buildings and for work needed for effective delivery of the national curriculum. £109 million has been distributed in this way, an increase of over 50 per cent. on last year.
Within the FE sector, after meeting commitments of £42.6 million, I have given priority to equipment, where this year's allocations are nearly 50 per cent. higher than last year's.
These education ACGs represent only the minimum level of expenditure which I consider desirable. They are not grants and do not themselves give authorities the power to borrow money for capital purposes. My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for the Environment will issue credit approvals to each authority which will give authorisation to borrow for capital spending on all services. ACGs include a small element in respect of spending from capital receipts on top of the spending which can be financed by borrowing. In addition, authorities will be able to spend futher sums from capital receipts and from their revenue budgets if they so choose. Local authority expenditure, including that on loan charges resulting from capital expenditure, is assisted by central government through revenue support grant.
I am also announcing an increase of over a third in grant available for spending on new building projects by the governors of aided and special agreement schools. I have authorised 67 new starts for major projects compared with 59 last year, and an increase of 37 per cent. in the allocation of minor works. A further 31 projects have been put on to the design list to enable detailed costed plans to be drawn up and LEAs and governors can apply for projects which require statutory proposals to be added to the list in the course of the year. My distribution of annual capital guidelines and allocations to voluntary-aided schools should provide a
Column 43
substantial boost to improvements to our school buildings and help equip them for effective delivery of the national curriculum. Attached are lists of annual capital guidelines to individual local authorities for 1990-91 and 1991-92. Also attached are allocations for voluntary aided and special agreement schools, which include major new projects at voluntary-aided schools accepted for a start in 1991-92.
