Proceeding contribution from Lord O'Neill of Clackmannan (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 17 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Energy Bill [HL].


Energy Bill

Before the noble Baroness leaves this point, it is all very well asking the Government to do something, but they do not do it themselves. Surely we have to be more explicit. Is that not a matter for the consumer protection department of local authorities? And if it is, at a time of cuts, it is a bit unrealistic to assume that they will be able to assume responsibility to do that kind of work, given that there are 14 million homes that could be the subject of these cowboys’ attentions.
