Infrastructure Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Tessa Munt (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 February 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Infrastructure Bill [Lords].

One of the details I am particularly concerned about is coal bed methane, which is exploited at depths of 150 to 400 metres—unlike high-volume hydraulic fracturing, which is done below 1,000 metres—and which is not defined in the Bill. Does my hon. Friend agree that there should be a prohibition on all gas exploitation at depths of less than 1,000 metres?
