Proceeding contribution from Lord Stoddart of Swindon (Independent Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 13 May 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Climate Change Act 2008 (2020 Target, Credit Limit and Definitions) Order 2009.


Climate Change Act 2008 (2020 Target, Credit Limit and Definitions) Order 2009

My Lords, the Minister gave way. This is an important question because it involves cost to ordinary people, a point raised by the noble Lord, Lord Lea. I estimate and calculate that it means £10 billion per year, which is roughly £1,650 per person per annum that has to be found by ordinary people through their taxes and higher prices. People should be informed of exactly how the Government’s policy will hit them.
