Draft Future First Action Plan 2007/08 and Strategy & Implementation Plan for the Local Authority Carbon Management Programme The Environment & Economy Scrutiny Panel had the following specific points that they would wish to raise with Cabinet: · Kieran Murphy is drafting a letter to the Secretary of State for Transport, urging a relaxation of the regulations, which cover the need for lighting of signs, etc., partly to allow local highway authorities to reduce their carbon emissions from this source. The Panel thought that this letter might have added weight if it came from Keith on behalf of the Cabinet. · The Panel thought that, at the appropriate time, we should publicise the advantages - in terms of reduced light pollution as well as cost and carbon savings - of selectively reducing the amount of street lighting, particularly in some rural locations · The Panel would like to suggest that there be member representation on the Carbon Management Programme Board. 9.
