How do you make sure that you do bring everyone on this journey? We cannot do it without every single country being invol…” | 63 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 232) “If we did move to a shorter settlement how would it impact on your ability to manage all the data that comes into the different organisations that you work with?” | 30 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | European Entry and Exit System “As an MP who represents a constituency at the heart of the golden triangle, with one in five of my constituents working in logistics, this issue comes up regularly, including most recently with Steve Deveraux from BSI Transport, who explained to me the costs and the red tape that the current entry system creates. Will …” transportimmigration | 91 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 170) “On storytelling, the everyday person would generally see COP as rich people and leaders of the world travelling by private jet, staying in five-star hotels to talk about us all having to turn on our washing machines in the middle of the night and get rid of our petrol cars. Are we telling the right stories about these …” | 59 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 170) “Ana, a final question to you. A problem with the COPs is that they are too far removed from people’s everyday experiences. Will the agreements from Santa Marta have a more direct impact on people’s lives?” | 36 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 170) “You talked about positive signals from Government.

| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 170) “Rachel, you have managed to answer some of my questions ahead, so we might get some time back. I want to talk about Santa Marta. You have talked about it a bit, but what have you learned from our participation in that first global summit that we can apply going forward?” | 51 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 170) “Are we better placed to make change through a coalition like that than the broader UNFCCC?” | 16 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 232) “Alastair, Great Britain’s imbalance settlement period remains at 30 minutes. The EU is moving to 15. Australia is moving to five minutes. Should it be shortened and if so to what length?” | 32 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 232) “Matthew, the market half-hour settlement is seven months delayed under your business’s programme. Are you going to meet May 2027?” | 20 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 232) “Any idea of the level of cost it would be to move to a 15 or a five?” | 18 |
| 8 Jul 2026 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 232) “If we did move to 15 minutes to be closer aligned with European markets, which may or may not help trading and so on, who would pay the cost of doing that?
