Proceeding contribution from Lord Taylor of Holbeach (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]

You win one and you lose one. I thought Amendment No. 74 was quite simple and straightforward. Obviously, from the Government’s point of view it is more complex than mere semantic phraseology. We will have a chance to consider that. However, I am pleased that although our wording in Amendment No. 68 is not quite what the Government would have put forward, they will indeed look at it in order to recognise that getting a baseline relevant to popular perception and political reality is important. I look forward to seeing those government amendments tabled on Report. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 69 not moved.]
