British-Irish Relations

Matthew Taylor: To ask the Deputy Prime Minister on what dates Ministers in his Department have held meetings with Ministers and officials of the Irish Government since 1 June 2000; where each Meeting took place; which ministers were involved in each meeting; which Irish Government departments were involved in each meeting; and which Ministers and officials from the Irish Government attended each meeting. [72688]

Mr. Leslie: My right hon. Friend the Deputy Prime Minister attended the British-Irish Council Summit held in Jersey on 14 June 2002. The Taioseach and other Irish Ministers were also present. I refer the hon. Member to the answer given by my right hon. Friend the Deputy Prime Minister to the hon. Member for Hull, North (Mr. McNamara) on 20 June 2002, Official Report c.494W.

Mobile Phone Masts

Mr. Willis: To ask the Deputy Prime Minister, how many planning appeals his Department has decided on mobile phone masts and base stations; and what the outcome of the appeals were in each of the last three years. [79043]

Mr. McNulty: The following information relates to appeal decisions about telecommunications development generally, as information is not held about appeal decisions for mobile phone masts and base stations specifically. However, I would estimate that a large proportion of the appeals were for mobile phone masts and base stations.
