Proceeding contribution from Lord Hutton of Furness (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 June 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Energy Security.


Energy Security

I strongly agree with my hon. Friend. I think that we must keep the option of clean coal on the table as well, and that it would be wrong to introduce new measures, as proposed by the Conservatives, which would make it impossible for new coal-fired power stations to be commissioned at any time soon in the United Kingdom.
