Public Bill Committee: Growth and Infrastructure Bill: “Chapter 4 - General (4 December 2012)

Nicholas Boles: ..., but I would like quickly to say why in each case.

Energy Production (13 October 2009)

David Kidney: ...to reduce emissions than to reduce our consumption of energy? Reducing our need for energy would clearly support our desire for security of supply, and for those who have difficulty paying their bills, the more they can reduce those bills, the better.
