(Translated) What assessment has the Minister made of the future of nuclear energy production in Wales?

The Welsh Government considers nuclear energy can potentially help to address the real and urgent challenge of climate change. It can provide a reliable and efficient source of electricity, which the UK Committee on Climate Change considers to be necessary to the UK until at least 2050.

(Translated) Will the Minister make a statement on electricity generation from renewable energy sources in mid Wales?

Renewable energy is a critical part of the efficient and reliable low-carbon energy system that will support a prosperous low-carbon Wales. We met half our power needs from renewable energy in 2018. We need more renewable generation to meet the growing demand for low-carbon heat and transport.

(Translated) Will the Minister make a statement on Welsh Government oversight of Natural Resources Wales?

I have regular dialogue with the chair and chief executive of Natural Resources Wales. We have a robust governance structure, including regular official-level sponsorship committee meetings. The chief executive, as the accounting officer, is accountable for NRW decisions and is supported by the board.
