Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 July 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Fuel Poverty (Rural Britain).


Fuel Poverty (Rural Britain)

Does the hon. Gentleman accept that there are two problems with that? First, there are many rural areas where the gas main will simply never go, because of practical difficulties. Secondly, in an era of rising gas prices and a possible shortage of gas, does he believe that gas is really the way forward for dealing with rural fuel poverty?
