Proceeding contribution from Lord Rooker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 11 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change Bill [HL].


Climate Change Bill [HL]

My Lords, may I finish this response? Then I will gladly give way to the noble Lord. How would we know in advance whether companies would choose to buy credits, as they are allowed to do under EU law, or reduce their own emissions? How could we plan sensibly so that the practical effect would either be extra regulation or uncertainty? I am sure that the noble Lord does not want that.
