This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition MPs and Ministers to telecommute instead of travel where possible
More details
In the current situation about climate change, MPs and Ministers should only travel - especially overseas - if they cannot do what must be done by telephone, mail, telecommuting and video conferencing. (Formal dinners and receptions do NOT count as valid reasons for such travel - signing documents MAY count as valid depending on whether the documents can instead reasonably be posted back and forth. Attending the funerals of foreign heads of state requires SOME physical attendance, but such attendance should be held to the minimum number of persons possible.)
