Green GB Week and Clean Growth

Desmond Swayne Excerpts

Monday 15th October 2018 Commons Chamber

[Sir Desmond Swayne (New Forest West) (Con)]

Aside from cutting the emission of hot air in this Chamber, we can do a number of things individually. Will the Department be issuing advice to nudge us in the right direction?

[Claire Perry]

If my right hon. Friend has a moment to go on to the fantastic Green GB Week website, he will find 10 things that he and local businesses in his constituency can do, ranging from test driving electric vehicles to upgrading heating controls and understanding where his pension is invested. If he wants to signal the importance of this transition, he should make sure that his investments are in a pension plan that is not investing in unsustainable businesses. There are many things he can do and I would love to hear back from him about which ones he does.

[Mr Speaker]

I trust that the right hon. Gentleman will be accessing the said website within a matter of minutes, if not indeed seconds.

[Sir Desmond Swayne]

indicated assent.

[Mr Speaker]

The right hon. Gentleman is nodding in a way that is encouraging.
