Proceeding contribution from Jim Cousins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Companies Bill (HL).


Companies Bill [Lords]

Does my hon. Friend acknowledge that the new clause would require directors to consider ““significant adverse impact”” on the environment, whereas clause 173 is much weaker and the Opposition amendments are so weak and generalised that they would leave any director in a state of confusion about what he or she was supposed to do?
