Proceeding contribution from Elliot Morley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 October 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Climate Change (Political Response).
Climate Change (Political Response)
If the Government were to sign up to a target that they were not sure they could deliver, I suspect that the Opposition parties would not simply say, "Well, it was a bold move, and you did your best. We understand." That is not to say that targets do not have a role or to say that targets should not be viewed as important—indeed, the Government have set them.
