Energy Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Dixon-Smith (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 December 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Energy Bill.

My Lords, I had not expected to intervene in this debate, but the previous two speeches have forced me to my feet. I remind the House that these amendments, and this part of the Bill, are talking about 2025. There is only one significant carbon target which must be met, which applies in 2050. The rest of it is interim planning. If we are being silly here, of which I am quite capable, and sticking to an interim target, we are taking a very short-term view.
