Proceeding contribution from David Howarth (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Companies Bill (HL).
Companies Bill [Lords]
Not at all. The problem is in the word ““minimise””, which means to make as little as possible. Green taxes both reduce anti-environmental behaviour and raise money simultaneously, but they do not reduce the activity to zero. The problem is in the trade-off, as opposed to minimising, which is the problem of the clause.
