The Cabinet Secretary for Wellbeing Economy, Fair Work and Energy (Neil Gray) moved amendment S6M-09339.3— As an amendment to motion S6M-09339 in the name of Liam Kerr (A Thriving Future for Scotland’s Oil and Gas Sector and its Workers), leave out from “vital” to end and insert “role that is played by oil and gas in the energy profile of Scotland, the tens of thousands of jobs in that sector, and the essential contribution that the sector’s skilled workforce must make to Scotland’s present and future energy security; recognises that the draft Energy Strategy and Just Transition Plan sets out a future energy pathway for Scotland and highlights that, to realise its climate change ambitions, Scotland needs to transform the way it generates, transports and uses energy; notes that the Scottish Government has consulted on whether, in order to support the fastest possible and most effective just transition, there should be a presumption against new exploration for oil and gas, with a final decision to be made later in 2023; acknowledges that huge progress has been made in the energy transition in the last 20 years; reiterates its firm commitment to ensuring a just transition and that just transition principles are embedded in legislation; calls, therefore, on the UK Government to support the fastest possible just transition for the oil and gas sector; expresses deep disappointment that the UK Government has repeatedly refused to match the Scottish Government’s £500 million Just Transition Fund for the north east and Moray, despite benefitting to the tune of hundreds of billions of pounds at today’s prices over decades from North Sea oil and gas, and calls on the UK Government to support the deployment of carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) for the Scottish Cluster to capitalise on Scotland’s competitive advantage, including its world-leading workforce, who will drive forward the just transition and help industry to decarbonise at pace.”

Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee report on the Climate Change (Scotland) Act 2009 (Scottish Carbon Budgets) Amendment Regulations 2025 - Industry and engineered removals
Dr Richardson said Scotland has two key advantages in engineered removals: access to storage sites and the very large availability of renewable energy.iiiNet Zero, Energy and Transport Committee, Official Report, 2 September 2025, col 37
The Cabinet Secretary said that if companies developing negative emissions technologies (NETS) in Scotland are supported then Scotland could be an exporter of NETs to the rest of the world, as well as reducing emissions in Scotland.iiiNet Zero, Energy and Transport Committee, Official Report, 9 September 2025, col 60
However, some responses to the Call for Views raised concerns about over-reliance on engineered removals (FOES, SCCS, & WWFS) and recommended a ‘Plan B’ if the technologies do not mature to the scale expected in the CCC’s pathway.viiiWritten submissions from Friends of the Earth Scotland , Stop Climate Chaos Scotland and WWF Scotland
On a Just Transition for workers in the oil and gas sector, Dr Richardson said this was "critical":
Regardless of Government policy on net zero, the industry is going to wind down because of the geology.
