Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the remarks by Lord Callanan on 28 November 2023 when he stated that "we are reviewing our membership ... I am sure that we will want to act as quickly as possible" (HL Deb col 1018), when they intend to reach a decision about withdrawing from the Energy Charter Treaty.

The Government is considering the views of stakeholders in business, civil society, and Parliament and will inform Parliament of the outcome in due course.
