Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether he has held discussions on increasing the size of existing Liquefied Natural Gas re-gasification plants in the United Kingdom.

The Government engages regularly with a range of businesses operating in the energy sector, including the operators of the UK’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals. Decisions on expansion of these terminals are a commercial decision for the operators.
