UK govt has given the go ahead to gas production at the Jackdaw field in the North Sea.
It is expected to generate £1.5bn tax revenue over a 11-year period.
Will it be collected? Jackdaw is 50% owned by Shell, with a history of aggressive tax practices.
Watch the Minister's reply.

Climate change wasn’t mentioned a single time in the latest budget. Instead, new gas extraction at Jackdaw is moving ahead, and unapproved oil revenue from Rosebank is already being factored into their financial plans.
