Richard Foord

Liberal Democrat — Honiton and Sidmouth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 March 2026

Debate

Oil and Gas

Contribution

I agree with the hon. Member about the need for energy security, and certainly we do not want a supply chain that depends on the People’s Republic of China, which could lead to economic coercion. Does he share my view that the deduction is that we need home-grown manufacturing for renewable energy infrastructure?
