I am opposed to the Bill in its entirety because I believe it is wrong legislation. The amendment I put forward is not an attempt to rerun the debate in respect of whether the legislation is good or bad, it is an attempt to mitigate what I regard as the worst impacts of the Bill. I am particularly concerned that ruling the amendment out of order would mean there is some reason the legislation cannot be consistent with the national gas directive. I do not understand why amendment No. 2 was ruled out of order.
