Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 15 July 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Energy: Low Carbon Transition Plan.


Energy: Low Carbon Transition Plan

No, my Lords, essentially I hope that there will be a similar stringent approach to departments that do not meet their carbon budgets. In the end, if they do not meet their carbon budgets, they will have to pay financially for that. The noble and learned Lord allows me to make clear that carbon budgets will indeed have a powerful impact on the policies of government departments.
