SHERWOOD'S LIVING LEGEND LOTTERY BID

Early day motion 325, tabled 20 November 2007 by Paddy Tipping (Labour). Signed by 19 members.

That this House welcomes the Big Lottery's The People's £50 million contest; encourages viewers to vote following the screening of the four selected bids to be shown on ITV during the week beginning 3rd December 2007; recognises the strength of the Sherwood: The Living Legend bid in enhancing the environment and lifting the quality of landscape surrounding this internationally renowned woodland; notes the forest's contribution to tackling climate change; values the creation of new paths and cycle ways across a wide area in the Midlands and north of England; is concerned that two of the other selected bids have already received millions of pounds of Lottery funding; continues to press the case for a fair distribution of Lottery funding; and wishes Sherwood, the strongest and most sustainable bid, every success.

Signatures by party: Labour 19.
