Proceeding contribution from Lord Crickhowell (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 8 January 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Climate Change Bill [HL].


Climate Change Bill [HL]

I thank the noble Lord for giving way. Does not what he has just said apply exactly and precisely to line 1 of Clause 1 of the Bill, which seeks to impose a legal duty on the Secretary of State to ensure that the net UK carbon account for 2050 is at least 60 per cent lower than the 1990 baseline? As I propose to come back to this matter at Report, I will gratefully accept the gem that the Minister has produced and I promise him that I will produce it again.
