Lord Offord of Garvel (Con)
My Lords, on many occasions in this House the Minister has made it clear that he recognises the importance of oil and gas to our energy transition. In fact, net zero 2050 envisages that up to 25% of our energy will still be coming from our own clean hydrocarbon fields, and that figure includes Rosebank and Jackdaw. I ask the Minister plainly: what is plan B if these critical fields are not granted a future licence?
