Proceeding contribution from Angela Eagle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 April 2009. It occurred during Budget debate on Amendment of the law.


Amendment of the law

Because wave power is further behind than wind power, there is £405 million for technology transformation, which is aimed at things such as wave power. However, the support through renewables obligation certificates, to try to ensure that the existing potential in offshore wind comes about, is—to use the oil analogy that the hon. Gentleman has been using—further upstream. I hope that that gives him some reassurance.
