Commenting Chris Hopkinson, IGas Interim Executive Chairman said:
"This is a significant statement from Government and we welcome the commitment to pursue secure and affordable supplies of domestic energy.
The development of IGas' shale gas assets has the potential to provide secure and affordable energy for the UK in the near term, helping to decouple the UK from volatile and competitive international gas markets. Aside from the clear benefits in job creation and balance of payments through producing indigenous natural gas, we will support local communities with a comprehensive benefit package."
