Dear Environment and Sustainability Committee,

 

I support the campaign for a strong Well-being of Future Generations Bill. I would like to see the Bill strengthened by:

 

• Adding in targets to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases • Including a strong duty on public bodies to aim to achieve sustainable development in everything they do • Adding a clear definition of sustainable development • Properly considering the impact Wales has on people and the environment overseas • Boosting the powers of the Commissioner and making the role accountable to Assembly Members rather than Welsh Ministers

 

I believe that if this bill is to properly live up to its name that it needs to be strengthened.  There is no more important task that should face a politician than to ensure the welfare of future generations. Please show that you are possessed of true intelligence and integrity and ensure we have proper and adequate legislation in this regard,

 

Please consider my views as you scrutinise the legislation over the coming weeks.

 

Yours sincerely
