Access to the Countryside (Coastal Margin) (England) Order 2010

I realise that I forgot to declare my interests. I am a member of the British Mountaineering Council and its access, conservation and environment group. I am also a member of the Open Spaces Society, as well as its vice-president. While I am on my feet, I entirely agree with the noble Baroness, Lady Byford, about the points that she made about litter. The amount of litter that people spread everywhere nowadays is appalling. The amount of litter on mountains is appalling, as is the amount of litter even on crags, which must in many cases come from climbers. That is why from time to time the BMC organises teams of volunteers to do crag clean-ups. It is a curse of this age, with which we all ought to be completely obsessed until we stamp it out.
