Mr. Stoner's advice to me following the consultation on the Hydrotechnica report will form part of the advice submitted to me before I make my decision. I shall be publishing my decision, together with the factors I have taken into account, as soon after the end of the consultation period as is consistent with proper consideration for all of the issues raised.

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will instruct Mr. Roy Stoner to include in his report on the side-effects of the groundwater rise expected to be caused by the proposed Cardiff bay barrage, the expected effects of the barrage on sports grounds, gardens and allotments.

Mr. Stoner's terms of reference include advising me on representations made during the three months' consultation period. Since these include the issue of protection for open ground such as sports grounds, gardens and allotments, I would expect him to include this issue in his advice.
