Sarah Champion, Member of Parliament for Rotherham, will urge the Government to rethink its approach to recycling charges in order to protect jobs in Rotherham.
Sarah will lead a Parliamentary debate on the impact of Packaging Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) on UK packaging manufacturers on Wednesday, 1st July. EPR is a fee charged to packaging manufacturers to hold them accountable for costs of managing packaging waste throughout its lifecycle.
Rotherham’s Pride in Place project has taken a significant step forward with the appointment of a Chair to lead the Pride in Place Board, which will determine how funding will be spent. The new Chair has been announced by Sarah Champion MP as Eleanor Lockley, from Rotherham East Ward.
Eleanor is a long-standing Rotherham resident, an academic and a governor of a Rotherham school and will lead the Board to deliver on the scheme’s ambitious objectives.
Sarah Champion MP is one of 12 co-sponsors of the Hunting Act 2004 (Amendment) Bill, which has been presented to Parliament. Fox hunting has continued despite the 2004 Hunting Act under the guise of “trail hunting” - a smokescreen used to hunt foxes with hounds.
