Proceeding contribution from Geraint Davies (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance (No. 3) Bill.
Finance (No. 3) Bill
Does my hon. Friend agree that the problem with having a unilateral carbon price in the UK is not just that it will make international investors such as Tata Steel near Swansea think of moving their investment to Europe, and therefore helping Europe rather than Britain? She may be interested to know that in Port Talbot, near Swansea, a specialist steel is being developed. When wrapped around buildings, it basically produces its own heat and reduces the carbon footprint. Does she agree that the Government's measures are undermining global market-changing technology to reduce carbon footprints, as well as destroying jobs in Britain?
