Proceeding contribution from Philip Hollobone (Conservative) 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.

My right hon. Friend referred to the international context for the Bill. On 12 January, I received a response to my parliamentary question about carbon dioxide emissions, which stated that the UK would reach a total of 525 million tonnes by 2020 compared to 556 million tonnes at present, so there is likely to be a decrease. However, in the United States the amount is set to rise from just over 5,000 million tonnes to 6,763 million tonnes by 2020.
