Renewable Energy

Put that there was a report in the Guardian this morning suggesting that even if £100 million was spent on renewable energy we still wouldn’t hit the 15% target and asked if that was something that worried the Prime Minister, the PMS said that the report in the Guardian had been discussing the Gallagher report which was yet to be published and that we would respond to that report once it had been published. It was precisely because we were concerned about ensuring the economic benefit of biofuels and biofuel technology that the Gallagher report had been commissioned in the first place.

Put that there was a separate report to the Gallagher report, the PMS said that it was best to speak to the Department for exact details on targets. With regard to biofuels, the whole point of setting up the review was to ensure that environmental benefits were in place.
