 edie news centre - Shadow Minister seeks review of land contamination rules
Malcolm Moss MP, Shadow Minister for Culture, Media and Sport, called for the review after a number of homes in his constituency, built on, or near, a former gas works site in the early 1990s, were found to contain contaminated soils beneath them.
The contamination was discovered at the site, at Littleport in East Cambridgeshire, in April 2003 and residents have only until December 2005 to bring a legal case within the 15 year time limit from when their houses were bought.
He is hoping that a debate could move Mr Morley to re-examine the rules governing contamination and assess the risk threshold which appears to be set at too low a value and could cause unnecessary suffering to many families throughout the country.

 Ethiopian Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Ethiopian Review calls on CUD and UEDF to create a joint shadow cabinet, which is a standard practice in a parliamentary system of government such as the one that exists in Ethiopia.
Having a shadow defense minister who is consistently reminding the military rank and file about their constitutional responsibilities would play a critical role in preventing the Meles regime from unleashing the military's fire power on the people.
Since the system of government in Ethiopia is that of parliamentary, there is no legal reason for the current government ministers to resist talking with the ministers-in-waiting.
