     Dear Mr Greenway

    Root out Ragwort Campaign

    Further to my letter of 24 February 2003 and our subsequent discussion, I confirm my support for a Code of Practice for the control of Ragwort and indeed will be happy to contribute to the formulation of such a Code if that will be helpful.

    I understand your Private Members Bill will receive its second reading this coming Friday and have copied this letter to the Minister for Rural Affairs, The Rt Hon Alun Michael MP and to DEFRA.

    Yours sincerely

Keith B Estlin

    Executive Member for Environment
