Proceeding contribution from Baroness Wilcox (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 22 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Energy Bill.
Energy Bill
My Lords, it seems like a sensible amendment with recent legislative precedent. If the Government do not accept it, I shall be interested to know why this legislation is different from the offences that my noble friend mentioned in the Enterprise Act 2002 or the Companies Act 2006. The necessary safeguards that the Bill sets around nuclear decommissioning will already give people quite enough to do without asking them to prove the unprovable.
