Written evidence to be reported to the House
Energy Bill

Martin Horwood (Shadow Minister (Environment), Environment, Food & Rural Affairs; Cheltenham, Liberal Democrat)
This is more a question for Mr. Smith than for Mr. Winser, because it is about distribution at a local level. If there were a radical shift towards a more distributed system and if there were more geothermal heat substituting for gas, more small-scale community combined heat and power, wind power coming on stream or more tidal flow in various locations, could your members cope with the pace of change that we are probably looking for, or does more need to be done in the Bill or elsewhere?
