§ Mr. Tony Colman (Putney)I beg leave to present a petition that was promoted and organised by the Putney Society, led, in this case, by Mandy James, convenor of the transport panel, assisted by Christine Reeves, David Radcliffe, Jean Dolman, Brian Towner and Judith Chegwidden, and signed by 5,479 residents of Putney, expressing their opposition to a fifth terminal at Heathrow airport. The petition states:
The petition of the Putney Society declares that local residents oppose the construction of a fifth terminal at Heathrow because the environmental costs will outweigh the economic advantages. The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urge the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions to refuse planning permission for the proposed new terminal.And the petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray.
§ To lie upon the Table.
