I signed this sometime ago, which I believe may be more effective and none political.
Dear Roy Gerstner,
You recently signed the petition “Ban new waste incinerators and revoke permits where building has not begun”:
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/710486
On 3 April, MPs debated waste incinerators in Parliament.
This was a Westminster Hall debate led by Baggy Shanker MP. Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Minister Mary Creagh MP responded on behalf of the Government.
Explainer
Westminster Hall debates give MPs an opportunity to debate a topic of their choice, and receive a response from the Government.
They are a way to:
- raise awareness of an issue
- seek to influence government policy
- put the views of backbench MPs, political parties, and the Government on record.
They do not involve a vote on a particular action or decision.
See our visual explainer on how these debates work.
