Proceeding contribution from Lord Deben (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Energy Bill.
Energy Bill
My hon. Friend might like to cast his mind back to the time of the packaging directive. Members of the industry said that they had to share the obligation among themselves, but they could never make up their minds about how that would work. I threatened that they would have to continue their deliberations over Christmas, and it was surprising how soon their wives made sure that they made their minds up.
