Proceeding contribution from Charles Hendry (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 18 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on National Policy Statements (Energy).


National Policy Statements (Energy)

There is a continuing need for gas, and the hon. Gentleman has set out the time scales accurately. We face a challenge: we have to get twice as much investment in our energy infrastructure in every year of this decade as was achieved in the last decade. We need a step change in those investment levels, but as he rightly says, there will be a continuing role for gas as well.
