Proceeding contribution from Malcolm Wicks (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 17 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill 2005-06.
As amended in the Standing Committee, further considered.
I will not comment on good Tory principles; it is hard enough to work out who are the good Tories in this debate. [Interruption.] It takes two to have a split—that is all. The amendment would require the Secretary of State, when taking a view on whether it was appropriate to promote dynamic demand technologies, to have regard to the installation costs of those technologies together with the resultant pay-back period. When forming a view as to whether action in a particular area is appropriate, the Secretary of State will ensure that all relevant factors are taken into account, including costs, benefits and pay-back periods. Therefore, the amendment is unnecessary. Amendments Nos. 73 and 74 are merely consequential to the incorporation of amendment No. 72. I oppose all the amendments.
