Answer from Hansard
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero (Michael Shanks)
The energy shocks of recent years have laid bare the exposure of our energy system to the international fossil fuel market. That is why we have started a mission to reach clean power by 2030, to end that reliance and ensure that the British people never again go through the sort of cost of living crisis that they have faced in recent years under the Conservatives.
