Observations that radio-quiet QSOs exist in average galaxy cluster environments (Smith et al. 1995 and references therein) demonstrate that QSOs can be used to derive important information on the structure of the Universe at the largest scales. Previous studies of QSO clustering have been frustrated by the lack of large QSO redshift surveys. Although QSO clustering is detected in the largest existing QSO catalogues (see Shanks & Boyle 1994), it is difficult to place strong limits on the cosmological evolution of QSO clustering or the level of clustering at large scales (> 10h–1 Mpc) with current QSO catalogues.
