Clause 10 - Supplemental functions
Energy Bill [Lords]
5:15 pm
Mr Michael Weir (Spokesperson (Environment & Food; Health; Rural Affairs; Trade & Industry); Angus, Scottish National Party)
Frankly, I am not convinced by the Under-Secretary's arguments. Throughout our debates, we have seen that there is a possibility of such things happening. The Under-Secretary, in his own inimitable way, simply bats them aside, as his colleague did. People have real concerns about the matter. I shall not press the amendment to a Division, but there are serious concerns and he should think about how to deal with them. I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
Clause 10 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
Further consideration adjourned.—[Charlotte Atkins.]
Adjourned accordingly at twenty-six minutes past Five o'clock until Thursday 27 May at five minutes to Nine o'clock.
