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

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text <p>Both Ministers and officials in this department regularly meet with counterparts from the Scottish Government to discuss a wide range of issues impacting the oil and gas sector in Scotland. However, given that skills and related issues in Scotland are devolved these issues are a matter for the Devolved Administration.</p><p> </p><p>BEIS Ministers and officials meet regularly with the oil and gas industry. For example, I met a range of oil and gas industry representatives and a member of the Scottish Government during a visit to Aberdeen on 2 September 2019. The visit included attendance at the Maximising Economic Recovery UK (MER UK) Forum, where a range of industry issues were discussed. On 20 August 2019 the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy visited Aberdeen where she met representatives from the energy industry.</p> answering member constituency Spelthorne answering member printed Kwasi Kwarteng question first answered 09/09/2019 07:28:29 answering member 4134 label Biography information for Kwasi Kwarteng
