Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:57 pm on 9 October 2018.
The commissioner also said
'the Black Route is particularly weak...on the criteria set out in the Well-being of Future Generations Act'.
I think this is a key moment. I'm quite neutral on what the decision should be; I think there are arguments on both sides. But it's clearly going to be a key moment for the application of this Act for long-term projects and policies, and I do hope the Government will have some sort of method of responding in detail if it has to establish that it may be, in terms of the criteria set out, a decision that is not altogether aligned with it. At least that would take the Act seriously, or is it your position that the commissioner is wrong in making the assessment that she has on this?
