Carbon Capture and Storage

As an amendment to motion S4M-07974 in the name of Fergus Ewing (Carbon Capture and Storage), leave out from "but would like" to end and insert "; trusts that progress will be made over an appropriate timescale that takes full account of the need for effective planning at all stages; considers that the announcement of the Peterhead Power Project as a preferred bidder is an important development of CCS on a commercial scale; welcomes the significant funding being made available by the Department of Energy and Climate Change for research into CCS and CO2 monitoring in Scottish universities, and recognises the need for policy certainty to enable much-needed private sector investment in the field."
