EAC report shows government policy needs a green backbone - Doughty
2 Mar 2005
Commenting on the Environmental Audit Committee's report on the progress made on the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) targets, Committee Member and Liberal Democrat Shadow Environment Minister, Sue Doughty MP said:
"The work carried out by the NAO suggests that, for this Government, the environment is still tucked away in a single department. We need environmental sustainability to operate right across government with all departments making implementation of the WSSD measures a high priority.
"The Liberal Democrat Team of Green Ministers will continue their work in the next parliament to ensure that whatever government is in place, the environment is at its heart."
