Proceeding contribution from Lord Glentoran (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 23 May 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Energy White Paper.

Energy White Paper

My Lords, the Government have had 10 years in which to make a decision on how they are going to prevent the lights going out in this country. It would appear from the White Paper and all I have heard from the Minister today that no decisions have yet been made. The Government are right up against the backboard. Will they, in a very short space of time, come back to the House and tell us that they have made a decision and have a clear strategy on how they are going to stop the lights in the United Kingdom going out in the not-too-distant future?
