Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change Bill [Lords].


Climate Change Bill [Lords]

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware of the Institute of Public Policy Research report that considered the various Government models for calculating costs and said that, even if 2 or 3 per cent. of GDP in 2050 had been expended in an attempt to meet the 80 per cent.,"““the economy would almost triple in size by 2050, even with an 80 per cent. cut in emissions””?" So, surely, he is talking about a marginal amount in the end.
