HC Deb 18 December 2002 vol 396 cc798-9W
Mr. Gareth Thomas

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what assessment she has made of the change in use of CHP by companies covered by climate change agreements; and if she will make a statement. [87880]

Mr. Meacher

There has been no assessment made of the change in use of HFC by companies covered by climate change agreements. It is estimated that total HFC emissions arising from all business will be about 29 per cent. below 1995 levels, the baseline year that the UK has chosen to use for its fluorinated gases, in 2010
