Energy Efficiency In Community Buildings

EDM number 811 in 2005-06, proposed by David Amess on 19/10/2005.

That this House recognises the important role of community buildings in sustaining the social fabric of villages and other local communities; is aware that many such properties cannot provide a warm and comfortable environment for their 4.5 million users because of high energy costs and poor energy efficiency standards; supports the work of Ecocongregation, Community Matters, ACRE and NEA in lobbying for grant assistance to improve heating and insulation standards in these buildings; and calls on the Energy Saving Trust to mark Energy Saving Week by establishing a programme of grant aid to fund energy efficiency improvements in community buildings.

This motion has been signed by a total of 130 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
