Energy Market
That this Assembly recognises the cost of living crisis is exacerbated by the cost of energy; further recognises that this constitutes the direct cost of a reliance on fossil fuels in an increasingly unstable world; endorses the concept of energy transition proofing for all public policy and legislation, including development rights for green infrastructure; acknowledges the value of constructing and retrofitting houses and offices prioritising renewable energy sources; and calls on the Minister for the Economy urgently to introduce the necessary legislation emerging from the current Energy Strategy, including to alter the terms of the Utility Regulator to incorporate oil within its role and to carry out its functions with due regard to the need to meet net zero targets.
