I was interested to hear Lord Deben's account of travails with the UK Treasury. It is the same in every country. We have been watching from a distance as the UK Treasury has been getting energy policy completely wrong. When it comes to parliamentary committees, however, with which the Committee on Climate Change engages, is that done with each sectoral committee or is there any collective parliamentary system in the House of Commons or the House of Lords to engage with on this issue?
