Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:31 pm on 14 May 2019.
May I thank Dai Lloyd for that question? I remember the question that he posed at the scrutiny committee. Of course, we continue to work with the city council's taskforce, and we look forward to receiving its report when it's ready. As has been true over the years, the Welsh Government is ready to participate in the project and to contribute to the capital costs of building the Swansea bay tidal lagoon. The problem, of course, Llywydd, is with the cost of the electricity. In that field, it is the responsibility of the United Kingdom Government to announce a scheme that can support the sector with the electricity costs. It is the United Kingdom Government that commissioned the report initially, so they must be accountable for not implementing the clear recommendations of their own report.
