Proceeding contribution from Andrew George (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 May 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Fourth Carbon Budget.


Fourth Carbon Budget

I warmly welcome my right hon. Friend's statement to the House today, and his commitment to ensuring that the UK will be the first country in Europe to have legally binding emissions targets beyond 2020. Further to the point raised earlier by my hon. Friend the Member for South Thanet (Laura Sandys), what can his Department do to ensure that the green growth industries are able to take full advantage of the opportunities that this statement and the Government's policy will provide?
