Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 October 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Oil and Gas.
Oil and Gas
I am not entirely clear about how we have moved on. In the evidence before us, the small operators and Oil and Gas UK acknowledge that the existing system—discussion with each other, with the long-stop of approaching the Government, as the hon. Member for West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine said—is not working satisfactorily. What difference will the new system make? The independents suggest that we should go as far as legislation for common carriers. There seems to be a huge gap, and I am not entirely clear from what the Minister has said what progress has been made.
