That this House congratulates the National Industrial Symbiosis Programme (NISP) on its achievements since its commencement in 2005 in enabling its 9,500 industry members to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill by 1.8 million tonnes, reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 2 million tonnes, reduce industrial water use by over 2.5 million tonnes, together with a saving of over 5.4 million tonnes in the use of virgin raw material, delivering not only environmental savings but also generating additional industry sales of more than £99 million and a net fiscal impact of over £10.3 million; is aware that resource recovery and reuse requires substantially less carbon than the use of virgin materials; notes that NISP has gained European exemplar eco-innovation status and that NISP is now working with developing economies, including China and Mexico, to deliver real benefits in resource efficiency; and recognises that NISP is strongly positioned to support many of the recommendations in the recent CEMEP report on environmental markets and has the ability to deliver 5 per cent. of the UK's Kyoto Protocol commitment for carbon reduction by 2011.
