answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/07/2017 answer text <p>The central aim of the regulatory framework is to ensure wells are made safe so that they can be decommissioned with no need for on-going attention.</p><p> </p><p>Each shale gas licensee (and there may be more than one for each licence) is responsible for the well. When operations finish, the licensees are responsible for safe decommissioning of the well(s) and for restoring the well-site to its previous state or a suitable condition for re-use.</p><p> </p><p>The operator is required to design and construct an oil and gas well with a view to its safe decommissioning. The operator is also required to provide a notification to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) prior to decommissioning and abandonment of the well. The notification and subsequent weekly operations reports, submitted by the operator, allow HSE inspectors to scrutinise the activity to ensure that the well is being decommissioned and abandoned as required by the Offshore Installations and Wells (Design and Construction, etc.) Regulations 1996. This requires all oil and gas wells to be abandoned in such a way that there can be no escape of fluids from the well or from the reservoir associated with it, so far as is reasonably practicable.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Watford answering member printed Richard Harrington question first answered 06/07/2017 14:59:25 answering member 4068 label Biography information for Lord Harrington of Watford

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/06/2015 answer text <p>The UK works with a range of international partners, including Pakistan, to combat narcotics trafficking. We do so to tackle the international drugs trade and minimise the threat it poses to the UK and its citizens. The Government has implemented a clear and robust framework - the Overseas Security and Justice Assistance (OSJA) Guidance – that all Government departments must adhere to. This enables the Government to assess comprehensively the risk attached to our international activity. Once in place, an OSJA is subject to continual review. When the moratorium on the death penalty was lifted in Pakistan the Government reviewed its security engagement with Pakistan. Our engagement in Pakistan continues to be conducted in full accordance with the OSJA guidance, respect for human rights is one of its core principles.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 15/06/2015 16:01:23 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood
