The House of Lords Science and Technology Committee has had some personnel changes. The reliably AGW-consensus figure of Lord Krebs has stepped down, along with Lord Perry. Viscount Ridley and Lord Hennessy have been appointed. Matt Ridley needs no introduction of course. Hennessy - the constitutional historian Peter Hennessy - seems to have said nothing on in the past on climate change (or very much on science for that matter, so I'm not sure why he has had the nod).
The committee is now to be chaired by the Earl of Selborne, whose other interests include his chairmanship of the Living With Environmental Change programme.
