Proceeding contribution from Lord Teverson (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 welcome the Question in that it gives the Minister the opportunity to explain the circumstances in which this part of the Bill might be used. Although there is a subsection in it that says that the Secretary of State cannot direct what advice comes out of the committee, the way in which it is written gives rise to many questions about the effective independence of the committee, which could damage its reputation. I await the Minister’s answer.
