Proceeding contribution from Derek Thomas (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 24 October 2019. It occurred during Debate on select committee report on Plastic Food and Drink Packaging.

Plastic Food and Drink Packaging

I commend my hon. Friend the hon. Member for Tiverton and Honiton (Neil Parish)—Tiverton is obviously first—for securing the debate and for all he does with his Select Committee. This is such an urgent

issue, and the report is timely. It contains some helpful work and recommendations, and I hope that the Government take seriously and implement them all. It is urgent that we cut plastic pollution.

I declare an interest: I am the Member for west Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, in the most beautiful constituency—that is undisputed.
