Proceeding contribution from Earl Cathcart (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 30 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 Minister for explaining, on Amendments Nos. 183PB and 183RA, that it is not a revenue-raising exercise and emphasising that the charging is to incentivise people’s behaviour towards how they consume and dispose of their goods. I think I will have to read Hansard tomorrow to fully understand the response on Amendment No. 183QA, but at this stage I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 183Q and 183QA not moved.]
