Proceeding contribution from Lord Greaves (Liberal Democrat) 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 am now convinced of what I thought when I listened to the discussion. When the pilots start is not an issue but when they end needs to be given considerable thought—particularly the relationship between the ending of the pilots and the start of the rollout, but we will think about that. When I tabled the amendment, I thought that there were issues here to be discussed but I was not quite sure what they were. I am very grateful to other noble Lords—particularly the noble Lord, Lord Dixon-Smith—for teasing out those issues, as I now have a better understanding of what the difficulties are. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. Clause 52 agreed to. Clause 53 [Waste reduction provisions: report and review]: [Amendments Nos. 183ZD and 183ZE not moved.] Clause 53 agreed to. Clause 54 [Waste reduction provisions: roll-out or repeal]: [Amendment No. 183ZEA not moved.]
