Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 June 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Energy Security.


Energy Security

Is the hon. Gentleman aware, however, that there is a provision in the Energy Bill on the banding of renewables obligation certificates, which would give those undertaking demonstration offshore wind and marine renewables projects the choice of either a double-banded ROC or repaying the large grant? There is great concern among those in demonstration renewables projects that they will not proceed. What is his party's position on that?
