Proceeding contribution from Lord Clinton-Davis (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 25 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change Bill [HL].
Climate Change Bill [HL]
My Lords, I simply fail to understand why we have to incorporate the amendment in the Bill. If there is a duty on the Government to do something, that would be justiciable; but equally, if there is no duty, how do you go about it? Being justiciable requires a duty—and in that regard the Government are under no duty at all.
