In a brief intervention in the Budget debate, George Freeman welcomes the allocation of £270 million towards advanced manufacturing in clean aviation and clean vehicles, as well as £120 million for clean tech manufacturing.

Does my hon. Friend agree that it is extraordinary that the hon. Member for Brighton, Pavilion (Caroline Lucas), representing the Green party, did not welcome the £270 million for advanced manufacturing in clean aviation and clean vehicles, and the £120 million for clean tech manufacturing? That is the UK investing in the technology of clean growth, is it not?

Harriett Baldwin 

It is indeed, and I am glad that my hon. Friend welcomes that, even if it was not welcomed by the representative of the Green party.
