England Coast Path

EDM number 497 in 2013-14, proposed by Emma Lewell-Buck on 09/09/2013.
Categorised under the topic of Countryside.

That this House recalls that the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 was passed with overwhelming cross-party agreement; is confident, on the basis of evidence from existing coastal walking routes, that the full England Coast Path will create real jobs and bring economic regeneration to many poor rural communities; further recalls that the path was originally to be completed by 2019; and therefore urges the Government to bring forward its proposals for the completion of the path without further delay.

This motion has been signed by a total of 42 MPs.
