Environmental Targets (Public Authorities) Bill [HL]

Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent Excerpts

Friday 13th June 2025 Lords Chamber

Clause 1 agreed.

[Baroness in Waiting/Government Whip (Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent) (Lab)]

My Lords, it might be helpful if I inform your Lordships’ House that we will be finishing all the business on today’s Order Paper, so Members may want to consider the length of their contributions.

[Lord Jamieson (Con)]

Perhaps I might clarify that that has not been agreed by the usual channels and the convention is that we finish at 3 pm. We have already had two very late sittings this week, if not three.

[Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Lab)]

My Lords, I did just put it in the Teams chat. I did try to talk to the noble Lord about it this afternoon. I am happy to continue such conversations, but having this conversation is also eating into our time. It may be helpful, given that noble Lords are here waiting for their business to commence, that we commence with the business.

Clause 2: Duty on public bodies to take steps to achieve environmental targets

Amendment 2
