Green Investment Bank

Proceeding contribution from Philip Boswell (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 October 2015. It occurred during Debate on Green Investment Bank.

The Minister talked about the Government promoting green energy; but there are wind and solar energy subsidy cuts. I was Shell’s contracts lead on the carbon capture project, moving it from Longannet to Peterhead, and with the way things are going I am waiting for a backtracking announcement on that. The Green Investment Bank is a unique British

success story, still in its infancy and much admired around the world. Does the Minister agree that privatising it is an exercise in blind ideology, and that it ignores common sense?
