My Lords, I thank my noble friend Lord Elliott for securing this timely debate. I also admire the speed of speech of the noble Lord, Lord Bilimoria.
The economic path of our country is alarming. We are living beyond our means, taxing more and getting

Ukraine: Frozen Russian Assets
It is fine to talk about frozen assets and say that Russia should pay, but I want to switch gears a little bit. It looks like the Americans are focused on getting Ukraine partly to pay through this rare earth deal. I read that Zelensky was going to fly o

Great British Energy Bill
It seems to me that, earlier, the noble Lord, Lord Teverson, answered a question that was not the exam question. I do not understand why he brought immigration numbers into the equation, and I do not understand why—

Great British Energy Bill
I thank the noble Earl, Lord Russell, for his comment, which I must say did concern me: in a way, he highlighted the fact that it is more likely than not that the amount will be exceeded. I should also thank the Minister. I am glad that he recognised a c

Great British Energy Bill
My Lords, in moving Amendment 15 I will also speak to Amendment 16 in my name. I will start with Amendment 16, which seeks to establish baseline investment governance for GBE. Remarkably, the Bill as drafted provides no clear framework for GBE’s investme

Non-domicile Status
My Lords, do the Minister and the Government have any hard evidence, perhaps through a recalculation of the effects of the Bill on non-doms, that this news that was announced in Davos will have a tangible effect on the emigration of a lot of these non-do

Economic Growth
My Lords, I am grateful to my noble friend Lord Farmer for initiating this debate. It is a timely discussion given the challenges we face.
Broadly speaking, economic history offers us two models: a bottom-up, liberal approach that prioritises risk tak

Great British Energy Bill
My Lords, I will make a link between Amendments 118, 118A and 130.
On Amendment 130, it will be interesting to see whether we get the results, but my impression is that, in this country, there is not a single net-zero or renewable project that is not

My Lords, I also support these amendments aimed, like others, at greater accountability and transparency of the delivery of GBE. In particular, I support Amendment 95 in the name of the noble Earl, Lord Russell, on budgets. It is all very well to check o

My Lords, I too would like to voice my support for Amendments 88 and 89. I will be brief. The timing and regularity of this reporting seems to be normal, standard housekeeping. It is not onerous, and it is legitimate. On the substance, as I said on the p

My Lords, I support the amendments in my name and those of my noble friends Lady Bloomfield, Lord Trenchard and Lord Effingham. They aim to ensure that the proposed entity, Great British Energy, operates in a manner that aligns with fiscal responsibility

Great British Energy Bill
I want to go back to the point about the company acting independently. There is little bit of confusion about this company being an energy company, as opposed to an investment company. There will be myriad small investments. If it acts independently, whi

My Lords, I rise to discuss Amendment 80. It proposes that GBE be required to produce both quarterly unaudited and annual audited reports. These should disclose the rate of returns for each investment and the carbon emissions resulting from each investme

Employment: Tax Policy
My Lords, I thank my noble friend Lord Leigh of Hurley for this debate about the impact of tax policy on employment. I repeat the title, because I can see that the exam question has moved to the impact of the Budget on business. Unfortunately, I will pro
