Shapps: It’s irresponsible not to grant oil and gas licenses
It would be "irresponsible" not to grant new oil and gas licences in the North Sea, Grant Shapps has said.
The Energy Security Secretary pointed out that expanding the licences aligns with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's goals of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
Shapps stressed that securing these licenses is both compatible with the nation's energy needs and a crucial step towards meeting climate objectives, making it a sensible and rational decision.
