<p>DECC Ministers have been engaging regularly with representatives from the oil industry with regards to contingency planning for oil in Scotland.</p><p>The UK Government has been working closely with the fuel industry and the Scottish Government to ensure that motorists can carry on as normal, by encouraging Scottish forecourts to increase their stock levels well above normal levels as a precaution, by engaging with other import terminal operators in Scotland to increase their throughput to maximum and by ensuring that hauliers have strong contingency measures in place. We have also been working with airports to ensure they have contingency plans in place to ensure supply of jet fuel, and with heating oil distributors to encourage them to stock up early. Arrangements are also being made to protect the continuing operation of the Forties Pipeline at the Kinneil processing plant on the Grangemouth site so crude oil can continue to flow from North sea operations that use this pipeline.</p>
