Schedule 6
Climate Change Bill [Lords]
4:15 pm
Martin Horwood (Shadow Minister (Environment), Environment, Food & Rural Affairs; Cheltenham, Liberal Democrat)
The Minister makes a technically accurate and important point that was made also in another place. I referred earlier to the possibility of the EU’s legislative timetable not going according to schedule and the directive not being adopted before the next European elections in June 2009. That raises a different scenario, which the hon. Gentleman should address.
