Public Access to Nature

Proceeding contribution from Margaret Greenwood (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 May 2023. It occurred during Backbench debate on Public Access to Nature.

The Minister is making a strong case for encouraging people to access nature. As I mentioned in my speech, in Wirral West, we have Hilbre Island in the Dee estuary. It is incredibly important for international bird life and very much enjoyed by people who live in the area and people who visit the area. It has been at risk of underground coal gasification. I am seeking a commitment from Government that they will rule out underground coal gasification. Can she give me an answer today, or write to me with such a commitment, having consulted with colleagues?
