News Releases pre June 2001

News Releases issued on Environmental Protection issues, by the then Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions (DETR) prior to the General Election in June 2001, have not been transferred to the Defra web site, and in general, remained available on the web site of the Department for Transport, Local Government and the Regions (DTLR). Because of changes to the DTLR web site, the web site addresses of news releases were all changed, and news releases prior to November 1999 are only available via the Government News Network site. You should therefore consult the following sites:

  • DTLR - www.press.dtlr.gov.uk/pns/newslist.cgi
    Note: Whilst DTLR's functions were transferred, on 29 May 2002, to the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and the Department for Transport, DTLR information is being retained at the www.dtlr.gov.uk web site.

  • Government News Network - www.nds.coi.gov.uk/ - this site covers news releases issued across central Government.
