Climate Change Bill [HL]

I gave the off-cuts as an example of Clause 37(1)(b), which refers to, "““the use of materials in whose production energy was consumed””." I gave the example of a motor manufacturer. At the end of the production line, we would have all the cars, but also several skips of scrap which are not included, let us say, in the price of the cars, although obviously the price would be there. The point is that the off-cuts could be recycled. They could be put back into the system. Therefore, this category would be different and would provide an exemption for items that are recycled. Obviously, the energy content is still there in the first place, so it would not be charged for twice, I hope.
