Part of 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Energy, Planning and Rural Affairs – in the Senedd at 1:57 pm on 13 June 2018.
Thank you. Well, I too expected a decision to be made. We were told that probably a decision would have been made last Monday, then we were told today. My latest intelligence is probably 10 days, so we just really don't know. Obviously, I have to be very mindful again about discussing a particular project because of my role in relation to planning and, obviously, marine licensing. You'll be aware that the First Minister wrote to Greg Clark last week. To date, he's not received a response. So, I think the funding offer has been taken seriously, and I know the First Minister has discussed it personally with the Prime Minister. I'm not sure if he's discussed it personally with Greg Clark, but certainly he has written, and we are awaiting a response.
