asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish a full text of the European Economic Community requirements on vehicle exhaust emissions.

The most recent full text of the Commission's proposals was published on 19 June (COM(85)288 Final). This is subject to further discussion on a number of points. The standards for vehicle emissions on which an agreement was reached at the Environment Council of 27–28 June are set out in my answer of 3 July to my hon. Friend the Member for Renfrew, West and Inverclyde (Mrs. McCurley) at column 395.
