Bradford West MP George Galloway has called for the government to introduce measures to help combat the theft of valuable Yorkshire stone.
"I have put down two parliamentary questions on the widespread thefts after a constituent's request for me to look into it," the MP said. "I have drawn the minister's attentions to this and asked what measures could be introduced to combat it. I know that the police have been doing all they can to detect these thefts - from heritage sites such as Bolling Hall, Haworth cemetery and the Bronte Cemetery at Haworth - and I want to make their job easier. I'm thinking along the lines of those introduced to help stop metal theft.
