Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of who was behind the attack on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline; and what evidence they have for that assessment.
The Government takes the protection and resilience of subsea and offshore infrastructure seriously. Departments work together to protect it from malicious and other hazards such as accidental damage. The Department awaits the findings of the ongoing investigations into the deliberate damage of the Nord Stream gas pipelines. It would not be appropriate to comment further at this time.
