Business of the House

Business question from Barry Gardiner (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 November 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Yesterday, a group of all-party MPs met senior staffers from the Senate offices in Washington to discuss issues of climate change. One point that was made forcefully to us was that labour organisations and unions in this country are so much more ahead and part of the debate than they are in the United States. Will my right hon. and learned Friend find ways in which we could encourage further dialogue between labour organisations here and in the US, to ensure that we progress the climate change agenda?
