Shale Gas

Proceeding contribution from Julian Knight (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 30 June 2015. It occurred during Debate on Shale Gas.

I congratulate my hon. Friend on securing this debate. Does he acknowledge that although the United States and Canada initially saw a transformative economic effect from shale gas, there has been a slowdown since 2014? Some gas fields are running at a loss. Does that not show that we need to ensure that there is an economically viable case in all instances of exploration?
