Proceeding contribution from Chris Huhne (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Energy Bill [Lords].

Energy Bill [Lords]

Let me make a bit more progress, but I will give way again later. There will be no more picking off the easy bits, with a little insulation here and a low-energy light bulb there; no more relying on regulation alone to change behaviour; and no more top-down schemes imposed using public money. Instead, we are creating a new dynamic market in energy efficiency, shifting from small-scale improvements to deep retrofits on a national scale. This dynamic market will bring jobs across the length and breadth of the country, and real growth, reaching into the most deprived areas, with no regional bias.
