Irish UN Climate Action Speech

Lansdowne Oil & Gas plc (AIM: LOGP), the North Celtic Sea focused, oil and gas company, notes yesterday evening's announcement at the UN Climate Action Summit by An Taoiseach, Leo Varadkar, which stated the Irish Government's intention to phase out oil exploration licences in the future.

The Company believes that the phasing out only relates to the issuance of future oil licences and the Company presumes that all of the options, licences and leases already in place will be allowed to progress for their full duration.
