PARLIAMENT AND SOLAR PANELS

Early day motion 2007, tabled 9 July 2008 by Lord Mann (Labour). Signed by 41 members.

That this House recognises the need for action to combat climate change, and that it is the first national legislature to set binding national limits on carbon dioxide emissions; further recognises the importance of the environment as an issue for the public; believes that more could be done domestically and internationally with each individual and organisation taking their role more seriously; and resolves to use the vast roof space of the House of Commons buildings for solar panels so that this House can do more to reduce its own emissions and take an active lead in the fight against climate change.

Signatures by party: Labour 26, Liberal Democrat 8, DUP 2, Social Democratic and Labour Party 2, Conservative 1, Independent 1, Scottish National Party 1.
