GAS STORAGE

Early day motion 544, tabled 6 January 2010 by John Hemming (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 21 members.

That this House notes that on 3 January 2010 89 million cubic metres of gas were withdrawn from storage notwithstanding the fact that demand was below 400 million cubic metres; expresses concern that stored gas is being used in preference to other gas sources; and calls on the Government urgently to review this matter to ensure that sufficient stored gas is available to maintain supply during the winter.
