I ask Professor McMullin and Professor Howarth to comment on what Dr. Deane said. I am not convinced when I hear it is not possible to implement these measures because of economic constraints. We hear in this debate all the time that market integration, competition and security of supply are prioritised ahead of the needs of the environment, biodiversity and what the children of the planet are screaming at us to do something about.
