This is the list of documents available for the submission Emergency motion by Councillor Lana Reid-McConnell:- "Council believes the licensing of the Jackdaw gas field is an act of climate vandalism by the UK Government, which will accelerate climate breakdown whilst failing to deliver cheaper energy bills, increased energy security, or long term secure jobs for Scotland's energy workers. Council notes that the impact of a changing climate is increasingly being felt by communities here in Glasgow. Council further believes it is deeply unjust that household energy bills are skyrocketing, resulting in Glaswegians unable to heat their homes, while shareholders and energy bosses are lining their pockets with increased profits. Council supports actions that would meaningfully cut energy bills, including; - introducing a social tariff for energy - scrapping standing charges which disproportionately hit the poorest households - scrapping the link between electricity and ever-increasing gas prices - replacing the current Windfall Tax with a proper, permanent tax on oil and gas profits, to fund these measures, along with new investment in renewables, and a rapid expansion of our transition to clean, green heating: and - the devolution of energy policy, including oil and gas licensing. Council agrees to write to the UK Government in these terms. Council understands that a decision on the far larger Rosebank field is imminent and that this field will extract crude oil, which will all be exported for sale on the international market. Council recalls its previous commitment of September 2023 to support the Stop Rosebank campaign and repeats its call for the Scottish Government to take a clear stand against the Rosebank oil field and recommit to the presumption against new oil and gas in their upcoming energy strategy.".
