I received this from my MP:

Dear Mr Edmunds,
    Thank you for your email. EDMs are never debated and have little
impact. I find it is better to take these things up directly with
Ministers so they have to consider the point and we have the benefit of
their reply. I will let you know what response I receive.
Yours sincerely John Redwood
