Proceeding contribution from Baroness Smith of Basildon (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 11 January 2011. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Revised Draft Overarching National Policy Statement for Energy (EN-1).

Revised Draft Overarching National Policy Statement for Energy (EN-1)

I thank the noble Lord for the time and care that he has taken to address many of the questions asked of him today. Perhaps I can press him on one point that I do not think he was able to answer. He said, in response to the comments of the noble Lord, Lord Crickhowell, that he would look at it again and take it back and discuss it with colleagues. If he were to do that and if changes were made to the national policy statement as a result, would that have to go through another round of consultation and another revised document, or could it be inserted as a result of the consultation and before it was put to a vote in the House of Commons?
