My Lords, I am not going to give an interpretation on my feet, but the domestic sector is so large, with 20 million-odd dwellings in England alone, that it has to form a part of the economy. What people use in their homes in terms of fuel, insulation and lighting is an enormous part of our economy. It may not be the productive economy in terms of energy utilities, transport or manufacturing, but it is a part of it. I will take advice on this; I am not putting forward amendments that stop the Committee on Climate Change looking at the domestic sector.
