| 5 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 393) “It has been put to us that the existing immigration skills charges could be redirected into domestic training.

| 5 Mar 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 393) “Dr Hanna, can we deliver clean energy by 2030 and decarbonising by 2050 alone? Can we do it with British jobs for British workers, or will we have to go into the international market?” | 34 |
