Energy Bill

Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Energy Bill.
The Minister might be about to come on to this point. I note that new clause 8 mentions the need to decide""whether coal-fired generating stations for which appropriate consent is given on or after 1st January 2020 that are built in Great Britain can"" have full capacity for CCS. Can she assure us that it is not anticipated that coal stations that cannot have CCS in them after 2020 will continue to operate, or is it anticipated that such stations might continue without CCS?
