Loan Charge

Sammy Wilson

Sir Mike Penning

Marion Fellows

Greg Smith

That this House is deeply concerned that HMRC has confirmed the suicides of 10 people facing the Loan Charge and that, despite the Morse Review, thousands face unaffordable demands, with the risk of further suicides; notes that HMRC has also confirmed 24 cases of serious harm, including 13 suicide attempts; believes that many people who used schemes were victims of mis-selling, and that in other cases employers and agencies pushed people into using them, yet HMRC is demanding all disputed tax from scheme users, not from those who recommended, promoted and operated the schemes; further notes that section 44 of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 deems agency workers to be taxable as employees of those agencies and that HMRC should have collected tax from agencies at the time; criticises HMRC transferring the liability to individuals despite its own failures; observes that HMRC is pursuing open enquiries for schemes before 2011 despite the Morse Review; also notes that HMRC is seeking additional payments from those who settled; further believes that the Morse Review was limited and not genuinely independent of HM Treasury and HMRC; highlights the resolution proposed by tax professionals; calls on the Government to work with all parties to find a fair resolution and for a full independent investigation, including into the conduct of HMRC; and believes that taxpayer rights must be enshrined in law and enquiries closed after four years if HMRC fails to act.

OFFSHORE PETROLEUM LICENSING BILL: SECOND READING

Caroline Lucas

Alex Sobel

Tommy Sheppard

Zarah Sultana

That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Offshore Petroleum Licensing Bill because, whilst it provides for changes to the North Sea oil and gas licensing regime, the North Sea Transition Authority is clear that legislation to mandate annual licensing rounds is not needed, the Bill will not deliver energy security for the UK which would be better achieved by unleashing cheap and abundant renewable energy and delivering a nationwide, street by street, energy efficiency programme, will not reduce household energy bills, as any oil and gas will be sold on global markets to the highest bidder, fails to respond to the urgency of the climate crisis, to warnings that governments already plan to produce double the amount of fossil fuels in 2030 than would be consistent with limiting global heating to 1.5°C, and to the signal from COP28 in Dubai that the fossil fuel era is over, undermines UK climate targets, with the Climate Change Committee observing that expansion of fossil fuel production is not in line with net zero, proposes weaker tests than those included in the flawed Climate Compatibility Checkpoint, could lead to significant costs to the Treasury, including the risk of stranded assets, and fails to rule out new oil and gas licences, amend the Petroleum Act 1998 in order to remove the duty to maximise economic recovery of petroleum, or set a new duty for the North Sea Transition Authority to deliver an orderly and just phase-out of oil and gas.

Keir Starmer

Angela Rayner

Edward Miliband

Dr Alan Whitehead

Lucy Powell

Sir Alan Campbell

That this House, while affirming the need for urgent action to tackle the UK's energy insecurity, the cost of living crisis, and the climate crisis, and for a managed, fair, and prosperous transition for workers and communities, declines to give a Second Reading to the Offshore Petroleum Licensing Bill because mandating annual oil and gas licensing rounds will not reduce energy costs for households and businesses as the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero has stated, will not enhance energy security, offers no plan for the future of the UK’s offshore energy communities, will ensure the UK remains at the mercy of petrostates and dictators who control fossil fuel markets, is entirely incompatible with the UK’s international climate change commitments and is a totally unnecessary piece of legislation which will do nothing to serve the UK’s national interest.

Wera Hobhouse

That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Offshore Petroleum Licensing Bill because, notwithstanding the need to ensure a secure supply of energy, it confers a duty to do what can already be done at least annually and as often as the Government wants, it fails to take vital steps to grow the UK renewable energy sector and reduce energy bills, and it fails to form a coherent path to net zero.

Dave Doogan

Stephen Flynn

Stewart Hosie

Drew Hendry

David Linden

Owen Thompson

That this House, while acknowledging the role of the exploitation of fossil fuels in ensuring a just transition, and noting that the independent Committee on Climate Change is clear that in reaching net zero by 2050 oil and gas will still be required, declines to give a Second Reading to the Offshore Petroleum Licensing Bill because the Bill does not provide an evidence-based assessment of all licences on a case-by-case basis based on an ability to simultaneously deliver cheaper energy bills, energy security, job security, net zero commitments and concurrent investment in renewable energy projects, fails to outline a transition away from fossil fuels as per the agreed resolution at COP28, does not acknowledge the climate emergency and does not seek to address the necessity for a reduction in domestic demand.
