Business question from Ian Liddell-Grainger (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 October 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

The Leader of the House is well aware that the Government want to get as much renewable energy as they can and wind turbines are one way of doing that, but they are being introduced in areas where they should not be. Nine turbines will be applied for on the levels in Somerset—an area of outstanding importance to the United Kingdom. Under the current Government proposals, the application will be put through. Please may we have a debate to discuss where these turbines should go so that their placing is not to the detriment of the heritage of this country?
