We had very much hoped that further progress could have been made between Committee and Report. That, clearly, has not been possible. We will support this amendment if it is put to a vote, to allow more time for conversations to take place. My hope is that those conversations can happen either before Third Reading or when this amendment goes back to the other place. In either case, it is absolutely essential that some solutions are found, so that GB Energy is not put at a disadvantage against other companies. But the real, long-term solutions are about validating supply chains, developing our own solar manufacturing panel capacity, strong and determined diplomacy, and working with our allies to develop new forms of manufacturing processes.
