Real Nappy Week

EDM number 539 in 1998-99, proposed by Paul Burstow on 14/04/1999.

That this House notes that disposable nappies give rise to over a million tonnes of household waste every year, costing Ãº40 million; recognises the benefits of local authority partnerships and promotions which can prevent waste; supports Real Nappy Week, 19th to 25th April, which aims to give parents a fair choice of modern washable nappies and nappy laundries, welcomes the nappy exhibition held in the House at the launch of the Week; and calls upon the Department of Health to ensure that a fair choice is available in maternity wards and through health professionals.

This motion has been signed by a total of 34 MPs.
