Tree Planting

Proceeding contribution from Alan Brown (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 December 2016. It occurred during Debate on Tree Planting.

I congratulate the hon. Gentleman on securing the debate, and I apologise for missing the very start. He was good enough earlier to touch on the fact that Scotland leads the way on forestry planting. On the use of wood in the UK, does he agree that the UK Government should look at more timber-frame house construction? Again, Scotland leads the way on that. Three out of four houses being built in Scotland use timber-frame construction, whereas in the rest of England and Wales it is something like 15%.
