Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 11 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on Draft National Policy Statement for Fossil Fuel Electricity Generating Infrastructure (EN-2).

Draft National Policy Statement for Fossil Fuel Electricity Generating Infrastructure (EN-2)

My Lords, that is of course a matter for the usual channels. The point that I am making is that if the usual channels are unable to find time before an election is called—none of us knows when that election will be—the Government would expect that time would be found after the election. I do not think that I can say anything more. I am seeking to give reassurance that, whenever the election is called, this matter will be debated none the less in the main Chamber.
