To ask the Scottish Government, further to the recent £176,000 fine issued to ExxonMobil following its flaring emission breach guilty plea, and in light of reports that the many years of flaring have had a devastating impact on the physical and mental health of local residents, what assurances it can give that the funds from this fine will be directed to support residents rather than being absorbed into the Scottish Government’s budget.

The answer

In common with the general approach to the collection of financial penalties imposed by the Scottish Courts, the funds from this fine will go into the Scottish Consolidated Fund for use within the overall Scottish administration.It should be noted that, under the terms of the Scotland Act 2016 and associated legislation, the amount of the fine income retained by the Scottish administration is offset through the operation of UK Government funding for the Scottish Government. Retention of fine income operates on a cost neutral basis through the relevant arrangements, and this does not represent additional funds for the Scottish Government.
