Local Sustainability Bill (EDM1711)

Local Sustainability Bill

EDM number 1711 in 2001-02, proposed by Sue Doughty on 24/07/2002.

That this House welcomes the Local Sustainability Bill introduced by the honourable Member for Guildford on 23rd July with cross-party support; notes that the Bill requires central government to assist local and regional authorities to play a more pro-active role, in accordance with strategies drawn up by them, regarding the promotion of local economic activity, measures for protecting the environment, social justice and political involvement in their areas; notes that this concept is fully in accordance with the Government's modernising local government agenda to give local authorities greater freedom of action; and therefore looks forward to this Bill becoming law in the next session of Parliament.

This motion has been signed by a total of 70 MPs.
