Debate between Esther McVey and Kwasi Kwarteng

Tuesday 11th January 2022 Commons Chamber

[Kwasi Kwarteng]

Very briefly, we have reduced carbon emissions by 45% since 1990, more than any other country in the world. We have grown the economy by 80%. We think that net zero and economic growth go hand in hand; the Labour party does not.

[Esther McVey (Tatton) (Con)]

T4. Storengy is a company in my constituency that provides gas storage. It tells me that levels of storage in this country have been decreasing. Can the Minister tell me how many days’ worth of gas storage there is now on a cold day, as defined by the National Grid, and whether he thinks that is sufficient?
