Thank you for your email.
Political finance law provides for transparency about donations, and sets out rules on companies being UK-based. It is not the role or purpose of such laws to single out and bar particular industries from participating in the democratic process, nor be used to push divestment from legitimate and legal businesses.
Furthermore, oil and gas remains an important part of our UK energy mix, helping keep our lights on and allowing people to drive their cars and vehicles.
Thank you again for taking the time to contact me.
