Proceeding contribution from Baroness McIntosh of Pickering (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 May 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Green Investment Bank.


Green Investment Bank

I congratulate the Business Secretary on bringing forward this proposal, and I hope that the bank will come to York and north Yorkshire. May I ask for a commitment from him—that in trying to resolve one environmental problem he does not inadvertently create another? Can he assure the House that the business and environmental cases for offshore wind turbines, in particular, will meet the strictest and most stringent conditions?
