To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, what recent discussions he has had with Cabinet colleagues on supporting the green energy transition in Scotland.
Ian Murray
The Secretary of State for Scotland
The UK Government is committed to making Britain a clean energy superpower by 2030.
As we make the carefully phased transition to clean energy, we will build alternative opportunities for oil and gas workers - to which we’ve already committed £22bn of investment.
What’s more, we have created the National Wealth Fund to invest in our clean energy industries. I have seen first hand what great work is taking place - including just last week at Dundee Port.
