Space Industry Bill [HL]

Proceeding contribution from Lord Fox (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 November 2017. It occurred during Debate on bills on Space Industry Bill [HL].

We have exhausted this debate to a great degree. I still feel a little nervous that people are being asked to commit to a future industry when they are not sure how their satellites will fit into the Government’s regime and what the cost level of that will be. Therefore, there needs to be more clarity—if not in the Bill then issued in the guidelines—so that operators can be assured that they have an industry that they can afford to support. With that hope, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
