Proceeding contribution from Sarah McCarthy-Fry (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Companies Bill (HL).
Companies Bill [Lords]
The right hon. Gentleman reads far too much into the new clause. The word ““endeavour”” is important. Directors would have to endeavour to consider the wider environmental impact and ensure that their actions did not have an adverse impact. However, they would have to examine the wider picture and I do not envisage what the right hon. Gentleman suggested happening.
