Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill

There may be an anomaly there as well, but we do not know whether that is the case. We are now caught in a trap between the certainty of the national target, which is in the Bill—the Minister said that he wants to keep it, so that is pretty much that—his hint about the possible involvement of the regions, about which we know no more, and the impact of new clause 4, which gives an unequivocal position in the mechanism for local authorities at all sorts of different levels. I hope that the Bill’s promoter is as worried about that as he should be, although he does not look worried; he looks happy, because we have made splendid progress on his Bill.
