Proceeding contribution from Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 18 December 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Consumers, Estate Agents and Redress Bill [HL].


Consumers, Estate Agents and Redress Bill [HL]

I am extremely grateful to all noble Lords who have spoken in support of the amendment. I am especially grateful to the Minister, who has recognised that this is a very important issue. I respectfully suggest that the burden probably needs to be fairly onerous if the council is to be able to speak for consumers on what they can do about climate change. I know that the Government think that this is the most important issue of our time and is likely to continue to be so. I look forward to what the Government will bring back. In the mean time, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 41 not moved.] Clause 5 agreed to. Clause 6 [Annual report]: [Amendments Nos. 42 and 43 not moved.] Clause 6 agreed to. Clause 7 [The representative function]: [Amendment No. 44 not moved.] Clause 7 agreed to. Clause 8 [The research function]: [Amendment No. 45 not moved.] Clause 8 agreed to. Clause 9 [The information function]:
