Debate
Great British Energy BillContribution
I now turn to Amendment 116 tabled by the noble Baroness, Lady Hayman. My noble friend Lady Young spoke to it, as did the noble Earl, Lord Russell, and the noble Lord, Lord Bourne. It was also supported by the noble Baroness, Lady Bennett. This amendment proposes a new clause which would put a new duty on Great British Energy to contribute to climate-change and nature targets. I, of course, note the comments made by noble Lords in relation to what happened in respect of the Crown Estate Bill. I welcome the intervention by the noble Lord, Lord Bourne. I do not see any circumstances at this moment in which pig-breeding would be encompassed within the work of Great British Energy, but I suppose you never know.
