Part of Energy Security and Net Zero – in the House of Commons at on 23 May 2023.
Andrew Bowie
Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)
When it comes to bluster, SNP Members are certainly subject matter experts. On support for Scottish billpayers, as I said, over the past winter this Government were paying half of everybody’s energy Bills in this United Kingdom. [Interruption.] The hon. Member says that that is thanks to the North sea, but that is the very North sea industry that he and his partners in the Green party would close down tomorrow. This Government support the oil and gas industry for our whole UK moving forward.
A proposal for new legislation that is debated by Parliament.
