Proceeding contribution from Stewart Hosie (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Energy Bill.


Energy Bill

On the issue of carbon capture and storage and the much vaunted competition, first announced in 2005, has not the Government's dithering been so bad that not only has BP pulled out of the project to use Miller field, which was due to be decommissioned, but it was announced yesterday that the project is to go to Abu Dhabi rather than Peterhead? Referring to 2014 sounds great and the competition sounds wonderful, but has not the dithering lost BP's investment and the opportunity to use the Miller field?
