SUSTAINABLE ENERGY (LOCAL PLANS) BILL

Motion Text

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.
