The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Mary Creagh)

My hon. Friend is a passionate advocate for ensuring good air quality for residents of his constituency. We have published strict criteria for incineration projects, and will back only new waste incineration projects that meet strict conditions. I am happy to meet him to talk about the project in his constituency.
