Proceeding contribution from Baroness Wilcox (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Energy Bill.


Energy Bill

I thank the noble Lord, Lord Bach, for his response, and I thank the noble Lord, Lord Redesdale, for his support. I understand that the noble Lord, Lord Bach, will not give me what I would like; however, one learns along the way every time that nothing is ever really wasted. From this exchange I have had a clarification of the role of the NDA, which is helpful; I thank the noble Lord. I have clearly heard the government attitude towards, and the diminishing role of, local authorities—and I have not heard that previously. I shall read the debate carefully.

Clause 45 [Modification of approved programme]:
