Climate Change Bill under industry spotlight

Members of the environmental industries had their chance to hear how the Climate Change Bill could affect them as a range of top politicians and experts addressed the Environmental Industries Commission. Environment Secretary Hilary Benn kicked off the conference as he set out Government's hopes for what the Bill will achieve. Shadow Environment Secretary Peter Ainsworth explained what the Conservatives believe Government needs to work on, and Didier Herbert, head of the EU Commission's sustainable industrial policy unit, gave delegates the view from Brussels.
