Climate Change and SustainableEnergy Bill

The hon. Gentleman tempts me, literally, to go down a road that I have not travelled before. As I am unfamiliar with what the admirable and enlightened leaders of Gloucestershire county council have done, I shall not comment on that matter. I also notice that Madam Deputy Speaker is suggesting, with a flutter of her eyelashes, that this is perhaps slightly off topic. I wish to see the Bill pass on to the statute book, not only because it tackles the issue of climate change but because it makes a contribution to energy security and to competition. I particularly want to see it pass on to the statute book because my hon. Friend the Member for Bexhill and Battle has made a direct contribution to building a durable, eco-friendly consensus in favour of matching new development with a sensitive concern for the environment.
