Wijziging van de Gaswet en Mijnbouwwet in verband met de beëindiging van de gaswinning uit het Groningenveld

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This amendment modifies the Gas Act and the Mining Act to legally facilitate the complete cessation of natural gas extraction from the Groningen field. It aims to provide a clear legal framework for shutting down production to prevent further seismic activity and ensure regional safety. This primarily affects gas extraction companies and residents of the Groningen region. It marks a definitive shift away from domestic gas production in this area to prioritize public safety and stability.
