The Planning Of The Coastline Mr. Blenkinsop asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps are being taken to implement the recommendations of the Countryside Commission in their Report, The Planning of the Coastline. Mr. Peter Walker This useful Report, for which my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Wales and I are most grateful to the Countryside Commission, contains major recommendations on a wide range of topics. The Government are studying these recommendations carefully and thereafter the local authority associations will be consulted in order to agree on priorities.
