Proceeding contribution from Simon Hughes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Friday, 8 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Green Energy (Definition and Promotion) Bill.


Green Energy (Definition and Promotion) Bill

The hon. Gentleman is rightly enthusiastic about microgeneration and the opportunity that it offers for future UK energy policy. Will he tell us what the Conservative party commitment is on what our renewables targets should be by 2020, in relation to the generation of electricity and energy as a whole? I have looked for the answer, but have not found it. If his party were in government, what would be its target? That is the context in which the Bill would play a significant part.
