SUSTAINABLE ENERGY (LOCAL PLANS) BILL
Early day motion 1777, tabled 4 May 2011 by Tim Yeo (Conservative). Signed by 51 members.
That this House believes that it is vitally important to involve local authorities in efforts to combat climate change and promote sustainable energy in their area; notes that the Sustainable Energy (Local Plans) Bill, introduced by a cross-party group of hon. Members, will set in motion that process by giving councils a greater role in drawing up and implementing sustainable energy plans that will help combat climate change, protect energy security and alleviate fuel poverty; and therefore supports the measures in the Bill and hopes they will be enacted soon.
Signatures by party: Labour 27, Liberal Democrat 16, Conservative 5, Social Democratic and Labour Party 2, Green 1.
