Proceeding contribution from Jason McCartney (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 May 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Fourth Carbon Budget.


Fourth Carbon Budget

I welcome my right hon. Friend's statement. Businesses in my part of west Yorkshire are already playing a major part in the green economy. David Brown Engineering in Lockwood make the gears for offshore wind turbines and is very appreciative of a £2 million investment from the regional growth fund for a research centre there, TEV Ltd in Brighouse is investing in air source heat pumps, and the then Conservative-run Kirklees council introduced the Warm Zone scheme. Does my right hon. Friend agree that as we cut emissions, the number of green jobs will increase?
