Proceeding contribution from Lord Moynihan (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 28 June 2011. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Carbon Budget Order 2011.


Carbon Budget Order 2011

Before the Minister sits down, I wish to pursue the point made by the noble Lord, Lord Prescott, in recognition of the Climate Change Act. In the Explanatory Memorandum, it states that Government must, in making decisions on carbon budgets, take into account the estimated reportable emissions from international aviation and shipping emissions. It further states that international aviation and shipping are not currently included in the scope of carbon budgets but they may be included in the future. I wonder whether my noble friend the Minister could give the House his wisdom and say when the Government intend that to happen, if at all.
