Proceeding contribution from Michael Jack (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 March 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.
European Council
I warmly welcome the environmental conclusions of the Council. In his discussions with Angela Merkel, did the Prime Minister learn of the fact that in Germany some 200,000 people are employed in the renewable energies industry, largely owing to the much more advantageous terms on which Germans who install renewable systems have their electricity purchased? What plans has he to reconsider how electricity is purchased in this country, to make the installation of renewable technology much more attractive?
