| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “When will it be produced then?” | 6 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “This is a plan specifically about Mossmorran that you have been working on for a year and a half.” | 19 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “Was the view formed, therefore, that the discussions had to be with the UK Government because it was about presenting the scale of the challenge, and you saw that the discussion should be about Government policy? What about a just transition plan, then, either presenting that to the UK Government over the six months or…” | 69 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | INEOS Chemicals: Grangemouth “This is such welcome news for Grangemouth and Scotland just prior to Christmas. My thanks go to the Minister and all Departments that worked jointly to secure the deal. It is a pity that the SNP could not bring itself to mention the Grangemouth investment earlier today at PMQs—perhaps after decades of failure, the SNP …” economy-jobsenergydefence | 104 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “Mr Greenwood, as I understand it, ExxonMobil began discussing Mossmorran’s future with the UK Government in April, and you have explained to the Committee the nature of those discussions. The Scottish Government were reportedly not informed until November of this year, according to the Scottish Government. Can I ask, w…” | 61 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “Were you part of the co-development of the just transition plan for Mossmorran that the Scottish Government announced in April 2024?” | 21 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “I want to know what is happening with it, because they have been working with you since April 2024.” | 19 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “Do you see no synergy between the two?” | 8 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “If you have no concerns about your other plants, is it just then the ethylene production operation that has the challenging environmental and economic challenges that you have described?” | 29 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “Do you see the UK Government’s announcement today on Grangemouth being one of those opportunities?” | 15 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “Would today’s UK Government announcement in Grangemouth not then fly in the face of that? That announcement today would appear to have protected 500 high-value jobs, securing the supply chain, and preserving that industrial capability. In Scotland, it is a £120 million investment, and as I understand it, that is ethyle…” | 67 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “No support at all from either Government?” | 7 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “So it is not really being co-produced then, is it?” | 10 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “What type of interventions would you like to see both Governments offering? What type of support do you think they should be offering right now?” | 25 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “You are in the industry and I am not, but I guess that would have taken months and months of discussions, meetings and negotiations involving the Minister, Johnny Reynolds, Jim Ratcliffe and others—I am guessing—to allow them to reach the stage where they made that announcement today.” | 47 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “You are the UK chair, and you cannot give me the figure?” | 12 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “We might be asking you that, because you have been in discussions with the UK Government since April, have you not?” | 21 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “The line you seem to be adopting this morning very much is that this is all the UK Government’s fault in relation to their policy, rather than any bad decisions on the part of ExxonMobil. I have noticed that you said that you invested up to £270 million of capital on the site, but you are still operating at a loss of £…” | 83 |
| 17 Dec 2025 | Scottish Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1564) “Sorry, what was the figure last year?” | 7 |
