Climate Change Bill [HL]

For the benefit of the noble Lord, may I direct him to subsection (3) of the amendment, which lists the persons or bodies to which it will apply. Primarily, that is local authorities, government bodies and other statutory undertakers known as category 1 and category 2 responders in the Civil Contingencies Act 2004. Apart from the let-out in subsection (3)(b), where a Minister of the Crown can specify others, it really is quite tightly focused—rather more so than the extent of the bodies referred to in the new government clauses, which are actually wider. This is quite a tight little amendment.
