Dutch court hears challenge over Groningen gas production
Dutch court refuses to halt Groningen gas production
THE HAGUE, APRIL 1
By Toby Sterling
(Reuters) – A Dutch judge on Wednesday refused to order a production halt at Europe’s biggest gas field, Groningen, where extraction is causing earthquakes, dealing a blow to opponents of government policy.
Production from the field was temporarily reduced in February after the Dutch Safety Board warned of possible dangers. A decision on the request for a quick ruling by the country’s Council of State by citizens’ groups from Groningen is expected within two weeks.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
