Welcome
March 27th, 2008 by Paul Burall
As Chair of the Liberal Democrats’ Natural Environment Working Group, may I, on behalf of the Group, welcome you to our website.
The aim of this site is to enable you to get involved in the work of the Group and have your say on the policies needed to deal with the wide-ranging issues around the local, national and global natural environment. In particular, the group will be developing policies to move towards a one planet living economy, with special attention on the use of resources. Biodiversity, air pollution, sustainable land use, access to the countryside and the marine environment are also within our remit.
The working group has produced a short consultation paper which has been published on this site and which will form the basis of discussion at a consultative session at the Party’s autumn conference. This site gives you the opportunity to join in the discussion online. We want to hear your views in relation to the issues outlined in our remit and consultation paper; you can do this by posting your comments here. Alternatively, you can contribute to the debate by submitting an article or articles relating to any aspect of the remit. Articles should be sent to articles@consult.libdems.org.uk.
Taking into account comments and articles submitted via this site, discussion at our consultative session at conference, and evidence from individuals and organisations with knowledge and expertise in this area, the group will complete their review and produce a policy paper and motion to be debated at the Party’s conference in Autumn 2009.
I look forward to reading your discussions and contributions.
