ENERGY EFFICIENCY ACTION PLAN: REALISING THE POTENTIAL (14349/06)

Letter from the Chairman to Ian Pearson MP, Minister of State for Climate Change and the Environment, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs

  Sub-Committee considered this document, and your Explanatory Memorandum, at its meeting on 4 December 2006.

  In our recent report on the Commissions' Green Paper on Energy, we endorsed the Paper's call for an energy efficiency Action Plan and welcomed "action to reduce the demand for energy" as a "vitally important goal". This remains our view.

  We agree that energy efficiency must play a central role in the current energy debate and welcome this Action Plan as an important first step in achieving this.

  We are content to lift scrutiny on this proposal.

6 December 2006
