Proceeding contribution from Norman Baker (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Friday, 11 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill.
Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill
My hon. Friend is absolutely right: the Greenpeace document on centralising energy has much to commend it, and I hope that when the climate change review is published—whenever that will be; it seems to be slipping, and perhaps the Minister might tell us today—it will reflect some of the sensible proposals set out in the Greenpeace document. As well as dealing with the old-fashioned grid to which my hon. Friend referred, the Bill localises energy in an entirely desirable way. It applies the proximity principle. It empowers people and local communities.
