Proceeding contribution from Lord Jenkin of Roding (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 15 March 2010. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Renewables Obligation (Amendment) Order 2010.


Renewables Obligation (Amendment) Order 2010

My Lords, I apologise for intervening, but the noble Lord must recognise that the use of the words "state aid" implies that this is something coming from the Government, and therefore from the taxpayer. Does it not behove the Government to repeat on every possible occasion that in fact this is not paid by the taxpayer; it is paid by the companies and goes through to the consumer?
