Ruffley congratulates Suffolk County Council on new ‘Green’ status

David Ruffley MP has today congratulated Suffolk County Council on being accredited with the International Environment Standard ISO14001.

The British Standards Institute carried out an audit of the authority to see how environmentally friendly it was. The audit included visits to fire stations, council offices, homes for the elderly and schools.

The County Council received its certificate at a presentation ceremony on Wednesday.

David said:

“I am delighted to learn that Suffolk County Council has been accredited with this internationally recognised environment standard.

“It is a reflection of the hard work local Councillors and officials have put in to ensure that Suffolk County Council takes its environmental responsibilities seriously.

“Dealing with green issues responsibly is one of the big challenges facing us today and it is fantastic news for all of us in Suffolk that the County Council are doing their bit.

“This isn’t about national politics it is about improving the environment and quality of life for future generations.”
