Saudi East-West Oil Pipeline
The noble Lord, Lord Grayling, makes an excellent point about the importance of that region. I speak as someone who, on an exchange tour with the Royal Navy, served in and sailed through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea and into the Gulf, so I know the region

I thank my noble friend for his question. We know that people are worried about the cost of bills, as I said to noble Earl, Lord Russell. The Government are transitioning to clean energy to get off the fossil fuels rollercoaster and take back control of

The noble Lord raised this very question with my noble friend Lady Curran, my colleague in the ministry. He will have heard the answer last week. I cannot comment on that project at the moment, given that it is currently subject to a live regulatory proc

Saudi East-West Oil Pipeline
I thank the noble Earl for a very important question. The UK clearly continues to have a robust and secure supply of gas, oil and other fuel products to meet demand, through a mixture of domestic production and imports from a diverse range of countries,

Saudi East-West Oil Pipeline
We do not know how long it will take for Saudi Arabia to repair the pipeline. Reports are varied, but some are optimistic that it will be sooner than that. I will, respectfully, take advice from our Saudi Arabian allies first and foremost. As the noble L

Saudi East-West Oil Pipeline
The noble Lord makes an excellent point about the fact that the drone attacks that hit the Saudi pipeline and installations generally came from Iraq—from IRGC-supported militia. I cannot give a guarantee that this will not happen again. The IRGC is clear

Saudi East-West Oil Pipeline
I thank my noble friend for his kind words—and it is lovely to be able to call him my noble friend. He refers to the action against Iran by the US and Israel combined. As he will know, our former Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer made an excellent judgment

I thank the noble Lord for his points and his questions. He will recognise that in talking about percentages of oil and gas coming from certain regions—he mentioned Saudi, obviously—we understand that our energy security in the UK is reliant, in a positi

Ukraine and Russia
My Lords, we now have 20 minutes for questions from the Back Bench. I remind noble Lords to keep their remarks brief and to ask a question, so that we can get in as many contributions as possible.
That the draft Regulations laid before the House on 29 June and 13 July be approved.
Considered in Grand Committee on 14 September.
My Lords, I thank noble Lords for their contributions, brief though they were, and for the constructive scrutiny that they have brought to this important issue. I thank the noble Earl, Lord Minto, and the noble Baroness, Lady Smith, for their welcoming w
My Lords, these regulations were laid before both Houses on 29 June 2026. They make consequential amendments to the Armed Forces (Service Complaints Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations 2015, following amendments introduced through the Armed Forces Comm

Future Capability of the Armed Forces
My Lords, I appreciate that this debate has already focused, and I am sure will continue to focus, on the challenges facing our Armed Forces—issues around funding, the defence investment plan and, of course, as the noble Lord, Lord Harlech, eloquently a
My Lords, I wish to commend this report, in particular its emphasis on the importance of the principle of “nothing about us without us”, as referenced by my noble friend Lady Dacres of Lewisham, encouraging the involvement of autistic people, as well as

To ask His Majesty’s Government what steps they are taking to support the Armed Forces in deterring Russian sub-surface operations threatening Atlantic undersea cables.
Does my noble friend the Minister agree that taking a more overt approach to highlighting Russian aggression is necessary to send a message that attempts to attack critical undersea infrastructure will be called out and attributed to Russia, and to ensur

UK Homeland Defence
My Lords, I would argue that societal resilience is very much part of a country’s aura—how it comes across to its adversaries and how it is perceived—and that adds to our deterrence presence. Some of us heard from President Zelenksy last week about what
