Energy Bill

Proceeding contribution from Colin Challen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bills on Energy Bill.
The hon. Gentleman's analysis is very interesting. The Environmental Audit Committee has looked at the EU ETS, and I agree that billions have been made in windfalls for electricity generators. Given the immediacy of the problem that we face, does he agree that a windfall tax on those generators is an ideal way of raising money, which could then be hypothecated for renewable generation?
