Proceeding contribution from Duke of Montrose (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 4 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change Bill [HL].


Climate Change Bill [HL]

My Lords, the House should be very grateful for having that much detail filled in on what is obviously a very open question about what might cause changes. As this is a skeleton type of Bill, we are very anxious to have some feeling of what is supposed to be within its remit and what is likely to happen. One presumes the devolved Administrations will understand the necessity of a short period for alterations within the period of a budget, although it will be a great challenge to them to get their heads round why the changes have taken place and how much of the changes they wish to implement themselves. In the mean time, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 91 not moved.]
