Sir George Young : I have considered carefully the representations from both landlords and tenants on this issue. Although generally no new regulated tenancies have been created since 15 January 1989, the Government gave an assurance at the time of the passing of the Housing Act 1988 that existing regulated tenants would not be subject to the new regime which that Act brought in. Registered rents for regulated tenancies have risen substantially in certain areas since 1989, but still remain well below market rents.
Having carefully considered the representations received as a result of the recent consultation, I am not convinced that the public interest would be best served by altering the legislative balance which currently exists. To provide further legislative controls over rents would hinder efforts to promote the revival of the private rented sector. Housing benefit is available to meet the cost of reasonable increases in regulated rents for those on low incomes. Our objective in all sectors is to move towards personal subsidies rather than subsidies to bricks and mortar. Accordingly, the Government have no plans for further legislation on this sector.
I am concerned, however, that there should be general consistency of approach through the country. I have no powers to issue guidance to either rent officers or rent assessment committees, but I plan to encourage greater exchange of information and views between them to encourage consistency.
Dioxin, Derbyshire
Mr. Lidington : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what further investigations have been made of dioxin contamination of soils and vegetation in Derbyshire.
Mr. Yeo : I have today placed in the Library of the House a copy of the results of soil and vegetation sampling at Stanton-by-Dale and Staveley in Derbyshire. The results are in the same range as the levels found in earlier samples taken at Staveley, announced on 31 March, Official Report, column 292 .
Concentrations of dioxins in soil and vegetation are reflected in concentrations in milk from the same area. Milk is the principle source of human exposure to dioxins. The concentrations of dioxins in milk produced in the Staveley area are within the normal range for milk in the United Kingdom. Because the levels of dioxins in vegetation and soil in the Stanton-by-Dale area are comparable to or less than the levels found in the Staveley area, there is no concern about the milk produced in the Stanton- by-Dale area.
Sampling of emissions to the air from the foundry at Staveley reveal a very low level of dioxins, equivalent to one seventh of the guideline limit set by Her Majesty's inspectorate of pollution for new chemical incinerators. These results suggest that the gas cleaning plant at the Staveley foundry is very effective.
Column 592
Fruit and Vegetables
Mr. Deva : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the Government's planning policy for farm-based fruit and vegetable packing operations.
Mr. Curry : Farm-based fruit and vegetable packing operations, including those packing the produce of other farms, can help bring necessary diversification to the rural economy and assist our farmers in competing effectively at home and abroad. The Government attach great importance to encouraging new sources of jobs and services in rural areas, and maintaining a strong agricultural and horticultural industry. Planning policy guidance note 7 advises that development which is necessary to sustain the rural economy should be properly integrated with the protection of the rural environment. Unless material considerations indicate otherwise, applications for farm-based packing operations must be determined in accordance with the development plan.
NATIONAL HERITAGE
Broadcasting
Mr. Burden : To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage what assessment his Department made prior to its decision to require BBC Radio WM to relinquish its medium-wave frequencies of the impact this would have on the ethnic minority broadcasting in the west midlands.
Mr. Brooke : BBC Radio West Midlands simulcasts its services on both FM and AM, except for some 37 hours a week in the evenings, when it broadcasts its Asian programmes on AM. We appreciate that many Asian listeners would regret the loss of these programmes. That is why we have asked the BBC to look for ways of continuing to broadcast them after October 1994, when the Radio Authority will use the AM frequencies for a new local radio service in the west midlands.
North West Council for Sport and Recreation
Mrs. Ann Winterton : To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage if he will list the names and backgrounds of the chairman and members of the North West Council for Sport and Recreation.
Mr. Brooke [holding answer 12 July 1993] : The chairman, and those members whom I appoint, are currently as follows :
Chairman : Mr. J. R. Cochrane
Vice-Chairman : Mr. J. R. H. Greenwood
Ministerial nominees : Mrs. M. B. Birkenhead
Mrs. J. Hammersley-Parker
Mr. H. A. Cann
There are two vacant ministerial appointments.
It would not be appropriate for me to publish personal details in the Official Report. My hon. Friend may therefore wish to pursue this directly with the regional council.
EDUCATION
Student Loans
Mr. Cummings : To ask the Secretary of State for Education what is the number of students receiving a student loan in further education and higher education.
Column 593
Mr. Boswell : Loans under the student loans scheme are not available to students in further education. The number of students in higher education who are in receipt of loans under the scheme is a matter for the Student Loans Company. I will ask the chief executive to write to the hon. Member.
University Students
Mr. Sheerman : To ask the Secretary of State for Education how many students were studying at each university in the United Kingdom at the latest date for which figures are available ; and what were the figures in (a) 1960, (b) 1970 and (c) 1980.
Column 594
Mr. Boswell : The numbers of students at universities in the academic year 1960-61, and corresponding data for these institutions in the academic years 1970-71, 1980-81 and 1991-92 are shown in the table. Figures for these institutions and those for universities established since 1960-61 are published in the Universities Statistical Record volume 1, and in Statistics of Education volume 6, copies of which are in the Library.

School Meals
Ms Ruddock : To ask the Secretary of State for Education how many and what proportion of children received (a) paid and (b) free meals in (i) primary, (ii) junior and (iii) secondary schools in England as a whole in each year since 1979.
Mr. Forth : Information on school meal arrangements in England since 1989 is shown in the table. Information prior to 1989 is not available on a comparable basis although the results of early school meals censuses were published by the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy up to 1988 in "School Meal Statistics at October", copies of which are available in the Library.
