Infrastructure Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Amber Rudd (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 26 January 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Infrastructure Bill [Lords].

It was sent to every member of the Committee.

With regard to industry reporting commitments, fugitive emissions levels will be constantly monitored at all stages of development. The data will be made available in line with best practice and regulatory reporting requirements. However, to provide additional reassurance, I am pleased to announce that the Government will direct the Environment Agency to require operators to monitor and report fugitive methane emissions. In addition, the industry has confirmed its commitment to site-by-site reporting of fugitive emissions.
