PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
INCANDESCENT LIGHTBULBS (21 February 2007)
Motion Details
That this House welcomes the decision of Australian Prime Minister John Howard to ban the sale of high energy-using incandescent lightbulbs as a vital step in the battle against global warming; notes that these bulbs waste a staggering 80 per cent. of the energy they consume through heat rather than light; and calls on the Government to introduce similar legislation in the UK and to encourage similar moves across the European Union.
