PROTECTION AGAINST PESTICIDE USE

4 March 200464 Signatures

Motion Text

That this House believes that the public should have the right to know what pesticides to which they are exposed in the air, and potentially by skin contact, are being used near their homes, and in fields crossed or skirted by rights of way; notes that pesticide users should provide advance notification, and signs on-site, giving this information, or a hotline number, or website; and believes that no-spray buffer zones around residential areas, including homes, nurseries, schools and homes for the elderly, should be observed as a precautionary public health measure.
