Protection Of River Habitats

EDM number 413 in 2009-10, proposed by Oliver Heald on 09/12/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Environmental protection and Water.

That this House believes that the chalk rivers of England provide a unique habitat for a rich diversity of fish, riparian creatures and rare plant species which is under serious threat; expresses concern at the recent Environment Agency finding that less than 20 per cent. of the rivers and lakes of England and Wales are currently at `good' status due to growing pollution, over-abstraction of water and habitat destruction; and calls on the Government to develop a plan to protect and enhance the condition of rivers, including the chalk rivers, setting firm and demanding targets.

This motion has been signed by a total of 111 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
