A number of you have written to me on the matter of
Controlling the future cost of electricity.
I continue to support viable reduction of emissions
in both power production and wherever else we can – such as in transport. For
instance in my role on the Transport Committee I pursue greener, cleaner
options. One third of all emissions are generated by transport and we have seen
real progress in the current and future greening of transport. By 2040 all new
cars sold in the UK will have to be zero emission. A world leading move and a
goal likely to be achieved much sooner.
The event mentioned on 30 January is in my diary
and I will endeavour to attend subject as always to other Parliamentary
business. I note many of you say you are unable to attend and whereas I
understand the effort involved, I would encourage you all to support the cause
you are so concerned about. That way you can establish for yourself the details
you seek and I will be pleased to hear from you your own thoughts on the
foregoing.
As ever my door is always open to hear your views
or vice a versa through my “Meet the MP” events and surgery appointments.
