Proceeding contribution from Malcolm Wicks (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 November 2009. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Energy and Climate Change and Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
Energy and Climate Change and Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
Of course. We recently had the report on Buncefield, so it is not just a problem of LNG. The point applies to virtually every kind of energy source that we are talking about. I agree that LNG is important. The Milford Haven terminals have been opened and we will get quite a substantial supply of LNG from Qatar in the future. I do not think that the hon. Gentleman is arguing that we should say no to it; the issue is about being properly strict—I believe that we are being properly strict—about the health and safety considerations.
