Proceeding contribution from David Mowat (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 November 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Shale Gas.

Shale Gas

I am listening carefully to the thrust of the hon. Gentleman's remarks. I think he will concede that there has been a significant price differential in the US on the Henry hub, for whatever reason. Gas prices have fallen by about 50%, and that has been attributed to shale. I have listened to the logic of his remarks, but I have not heard the specific reason why he does not think that that will happen, not in the UK—the UK is not where the issue is—but in Europe; that is where the issue is.
