Proceeding contribution from Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HL) on Climate Change Bill [HL].
Climate Change Bill [HL]
I want to question the noble Lord a little on this. I would agree with him about days gone by—around the 1950s—when milk churns were put out at 6 am and cows were milked at that time. I come from a deeply rural area myself where milk tankers now usually collect the milk around midday or 1 pm. This argument of getting goods to market does not really hold as much water—or milk—as it might have done 30 or 40 years ago. If we were to be denied this amendment on the basis of dairy farmers in the midlands or Scotland, that would not be moving with the times.
