Summary
I would like the Government to reverse the policy of not issuing new contracts to search for and extract oil and gas in the North Sea and British waters. We believe the North Sea oil and gas fields are a major part of our economy, and that the drive to net zero is making us colder and poorer. Until we have what we feel is a viable and cost effective alternative in place to oil and gas, we think we should make the most of the resources we have.
