In my previous post in support of Andy Jones’ campaign for 5% Vat on Energy Efficient windows I sugested I would write a letter to my local MP using the standard letter he had produced.
Well, I did this and I got a very positive response. This is the content of the letter below, although I’ve had to alter it quite a bit to protect my identity:
Dear Mr Xxxxxx,
Thank you very much for contacting me concerning the campaign to reduce VAT on Energy Saving Recommended Windows to 5%.
The campaign sounds like a very sensible one and I will be happy to meet and discusss the issue further at my constituency surgery in the New Year. Please call Simon Xxxxx in my constituency office on 01234 456789 to arrange a date.
In addition, I have written to Rt Hon John Hutton MP, Secretary of State, at the Department of Business and Enterprise asking them to look into the matter and respond to the issues you have raised.
I will contact you as soon as I receive a response.
Yours sincerely
Xxxx Xxxxxx
Labour Member of Parliament for Xxxxxxxxx
What a positive result!
So, I’ll attend the constituency surgery in the New Year and let you know how I get on.
But, for this to work we need more people from the double glazing industry to do the same for some type of momentum to be created. So write to your MP - it took me no time at all.
Just follow the instructions on my previous post.
