Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 27 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on treaty on Treaty of Lisbon (No. 8).


Treaty of Lisbon (No. 8)

Does my hon. Friend agree that in the energy sector, the biggest challenge that climate change presents to the world is the need to capture the carbon produced by coal-fired power stations, including those that are coming on-stream in large numbers every week? Does he agree that it is disappointing that the Government have failed to drive forward the carbon capture and storage agenda, despite having said back in 2003 that they would move forward on the issue as a matter of urgency, given that it is one of the biggest technical problems that needs to be solved?
