answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/01/2020 answer text <p>The UK’s offshore oil and gas industry supports almost 300,000 jobs, of which four in ten are in Scotland. We believe that the North Sea oil and gas industry has a key role to play as we move to a Net Zero economy. We will support this transition with a transformational oil and gas Sector Deal. BEIS officials have already held preliminary discussions with industry to discuss how such a Sector Deal could enable the sector to play a leading role in the energy transition. Discussions will develop further over the next few months, as the process develops.</p> answering member constituency Spelthorne answering member printed Kwasi Kwarteng question first answered 28/01/2020 17:02:35 answering member 4134 label Biography information for Kwasi Kwarteng
