Yes, as I said to my noble friend, there will be no restriction, no no-go areas for the Climate Change Committee. The Bill makes that quite clear. But we need to consider the composition of the committee as a whole; let us not compartmentalise individuals. International relations are referred to in Clause 10—which says that the committee can look at anything that it wants—but that is not carried over to Schedule 1. We will look to see whether we can improve the wording of that between now and the next stage.
