uin	12774
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/02/2024 answer text <p>Taxpayers are not considered investors in oil and gas. Oil and gas extraction in the UK and on the UK Continental Shelf is a market orientated activity undertaken by commercial organisations. Those organisations and their investors, who choose to invest in this activity, do so to generate a commercial return and bear the associated risks, including the risks referred to in Question 202953.</p><p>The role of government is to regulate the activity. As oil and gas is a national resource, the government also seeks to take a fair share of profits from exploration and production activities through the oil and gas tax regime.</p> answering member constituency Grantham and Stamford answering member printed Gareth Davies question first answered 12/02/2024 17:02:35 answering member 4850 label Biography information for Gareth Davies
