3.15pmTopical Questions to the Secretary of State for Defence
Energy Bill [Lords]
ENERGY BILL [LORDS]: SECOND READING
Caroline Lucas
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Energy Bill [Lords] because it ignores the need for the vast majority of fossil fuels to be left in the ground in order to meet the UK’s national and international climate commitments, including those made at the Paris climate conference in December 2015; because it fails to set the UK on a path to a 100% renewable energy-based economy by 2050 at the latest; because it contains no provisions on energy efficiency designed to address the urgent need to tackle fuel poverty and unaffordable energy bills; because it ignores the strong case for putting community ownership and citizens rather than large corporations at the heart of the UK’s energy strategy; and because it takes forward the aim of maximising the economic recovery of oil and gas at a time when the priority should instead be maximising the economic, energy security and employment contribution of home-grown renewables.
Notes:
The Speaker has certified that Clause 79 of the Bill relates exclusively to England and Wales and is within devolved legislative competence (Standing Order No.83J).
