[Climate Change Action] Another energy bill? The battle is under way.

[Calvin Jones]

It seems like only yesterday that the 2010 energy act was established. Well, it wasnt long ago was it. But they are at it again! New govornment new energy policy. The Department of Energy and Climate Change have an overview of the work done so far on a new energy bill, it's all being 'worked up' at the moment and thus parliament isnt yet involved although the same cant be said about politics.

The BBC are already reporting on a battle between DECC and their advisors at the Committee on Climate Change and the Treasury. 38 Degrees has already got a campaign going to prevent what they are calling a 'second dash for gas'.
