Madam Deputy Speaker (Judith Cummins)
Order. Before the next question, may I remind Members to keep their questions, and perhaps also the answers, short?
Euan Stainbank (Falkirk) (Lab)
I appreciate the Secretary of State’s incredibly important update to the House, especially on energy security. There have been reports in the media of PetroChina being barred from all exports of diesel and gasoline by the Chinese Government. With PetroChina’s co-ownership of the Grangemouth import terminal, and following its role in the closure of Scotland’s only oil refinery last year, what assurances can the Secretary of State provide my constituents on the security of imported supply coming through Grangemouth?
Ed Miliband
We use negligible amounts of fuel from China, and I can absolutely reassure my hon. Friend, and indeed his constituents, on security of supply.
