To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how many responses he has received to his consultation paper "Competing for Quality"; what proportion of responses were broadly against the proposals contained in the consultation document; if he will place those responses in the Library; and when the Government will publish their final proposals.

[holding answer 6 February 1992]: To date my Department has received some 470 responses to the consultation paper "Competing for Quality—Competition in the Provision of Local Services". We have started to analyse those responses. We have indicated that we may wish to place in the Libraries of Parliament copies of all responses whose authors have not asked that they be treated as confidential. We shall publish our final proposals in due course.
