Motion Text
That this House notes the plan by the Ukranian Government to build a new canal in the Danube delta in an area designated by UNESCO; is concerned that such work will cause enormous environmental damage to several countries through which the Danube passes; and urges the UK Government to make urgent representations to the Government of Ukraine that such work should cease at least until there has been a proper assessment of the environmental impact of the canal.
