Climate Change Bill [HL]

As I said, I will try to come back on this but I am not promising to write to the noble Earl, Lord Caithness. I have already told the Committee that I will try to have some better figures on Report, which is not that far away. Given what he said, we will probably be on Report before the noble Earl gets a letter from me anyway. I am not wholly convinced that this is all on Defra anyway; it is from central Government. We are the lead department, but as I have repeatedly said, the climate change issue goes across Government. I will have to check where the blocks were. I need to come back with something, perhaps a briefing note on funding up to the present, like those we provided to Members of the Committee. That would be better, and more useful.
