GILBERT TO SPEAK OUT IN INCINERATOR DEBATE

July 17, 2008 12:00 PM

STIG LogoStephen Gilbert will be speaking against the proposed incinerator in St Dennis when Restormel Borough Council debates the plans next week. The Liberal Democrat Parliamentary candidate for St Austell & Newquay will tell local Councillors that "incineration is not the right option, that one-site is not the right solution, and that St Dennis is not the right place."

Stephen Gilbert said: "Over the last year I have consistently said that I want to see the plans for the incinerator properly tested by a public inquiry and when the issue is debated by Restormel Borough Council I will be speaking against the proposals."

"I am 31 now and so I will be over 60 when this contract ends. The world faces huge changes over that time. I simply don't believe that incineration is the right option for the long-term, that one-site is the right solution or that St Dennis is the right place. The plans are wrong, wrong, wrong."

    If you are a resident of the St Austell and Newquay constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
