*Ratcliffe met with [[Stephen Lovegrove]], DECC Permanent Secretary on 28 June 2013 at 3 Whitehall Place. The government's briefing notes described Ratcliffe as 'very well connected and has had a number of meetings with Ministers in various Departments and with [[Jeremy Heywood]]'. A section discussing INEOS' potential activities in shale gas was redacted from the briefing note. This meeting appeared to have been suggested to Lovegrove at a 'recent Lancastrian dinner' (held in April 2013). The focus of the meeting was 'primarily... about shale gas and the importance of supporting its development' in the UK.  <ref name="DECC"> [https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/275360/14_0127.pdf Email exchanges of 30th June between Ineos and DECC Officials.
