Proceeding contribution from Malcolm Wicks (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 10 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill.
Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill
I will not say any more about fuel poverty, because I hope that I covered that in my earlier remarks, but I remember, once upon a time in Bromley, discussing with elderly people and their representatives very real concerns about—to use the jargon—fuel poverty. There are people in Bromley who are too cold, just as there are in all our constituencies, and we need to help them. That is the serious point to make about this issue. A substantive point was raised, perfectly properly, about the definition of a unitary authority in relation to new clause 4(6). We have checked and I am advised that unitary authorities are included under district councils.
