Written Question
Offshore Industry: Scotland
Wednesday 9th November 2022

Asked by: David Mundell (Conservative - Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale)

Question to the Scotland Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, what steps his Department is taking to promote the importance of oil and gas jobs to Scotland.

Answered by Lord Jack of Courance

It is vital that we make the most of our North Sea oil and gas resources. This will maintain the security of the UK’s energy supply, produce significantly lower emissions than imported alternatives and support tens of thousands of jobs across Scotland. The Government is therefore committed to Scotland’s oil and gas sector and maximising the potential of our offshore reserves.
