asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish a consultative document setting out, in full, for the benefit of all concerned with the resumed inquiry into the route of the M25 between Chertsey and Wisley; and what have been the relevant factors in the re-evaluation of the alternative routes under consideration.

Full information will be available at the exhibitions at New Haw and Byfleet on 5th-8th February and in the Department's statement of case sent to those concerned at least four weeks before the inquiry.
