Proceeding contribution from Steve Webb (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Energy Bill.
Energy Bill
I do not understand why the Minister wants to prevent himself from having a power that he might want to exercise. Let us suppose that he keeps the 50 kW threshold in the Bill, but then decides, through his other strategy, that the best way to incentivise 100 kW or 150 kW CHP is through a feed-in tariff. He would be able to get on with that if we were to give him the power to do so today. Why does he want to prevent himself from having that power?
