Loxley Planning Consent Meeting to be Rerun

UK Oil & Gas PLC (London AIM: UKOG) is pleased to note that following questions raised as to the lawfulness of the planning committee meeting ("PCM") held on 29^th June, during which the Company's Loxley gas appraisal project was presented for determination, Surrey County Council (SCC) have decided that the Loxley Gas project should be redetermined at a future PCM. The Company now expects the Loxley project to be redetermined by SCC in the PCM scheduled on 17 September.

Following the 29 June meeting, in which the members voted by 6 to 5 against SCC's planning officer's recommendation to consent to UKOG's Loxley application, the Company sent SCC a formal legal letter of complaint outlining a series of procedural and other legal issues that potentially affected the lawfulness of decisions made during the meeting.

SCC also acknowledge that their Monitoring Officer received in excess of 100 similar complaints alleging that there were procedural irregularities that invalidated the result. Following the PCM no formal determination notice was issued to the Company by SCC, meaning the project remains officially undetermined.

The Company welcomes the chance to restate why the low-impact Loxley project is of material local and national economic importance, is fully compliant with Net Zero, and presents minimal local business, local highway and environmental impacts. The Environment Agency has already issued a permit covering all aspects of the development.

We trust that the 17 September re-run will result in a decision fully commensurate with the facts presented, natural law and fair democratic process.
