Zero-emission Vehicle Mandate
Debate between Lord Brooke of Alverthorpe and Baroness Blake of Leeds
Baroness Blake of Leeds (Lab)
I made it absolutely clear that we are talking about affordability across the piece. The new car market is a relatively small part of cars coming in altogether. Affordability is very much an objective on this side of the House, and I do not think we need any lectures at all on how we make sure that all people can benefit from improving manufacturing and living standards.
Lord Brooke of Alverthorpe (Lab)
Should we not be grateful that we are in a better position financially than we would have been, had we been trying to shift London airport down into the estuary?
Baroness Blake of Leeds (Lab)
I am sure the noble Lord has far more information on that subject, and I welcome his contribution.
