This is a topic that the Member has made many representations about previously, but diverts slightly away from the topic of hydrogen, which we'll focus on, given that time is of the essence.

If this is achieved, Wales would be able to export hydrogen across the country. But, Pembrokeshire needs a 100 per cent hydrogen pipeline to be built, connecting the Haven to south Wales's industrial heartlands—a pipeline that is already in the pipeline, if you pardon the pun. But if we are to deliver, then these plans must be accelerated and supported by the Welsh Government. By doing so, Wales can be an integral part of UK-wide decarbonisation strategy, mirroring the timeline of offshore wind development at low cost with no regret. Doing this would not just secure our future, but decarbonisation retains jobs and enhances our nation's skill set.

The economic benefits from the development of Wales's hydrogen economy must be part of the bigger picture. Retaining good jobs in Wales in wider Welsh industries is as important as maximising benefits for Wales from hydrogen. That's why the Welsh Government must centralise supply chain procurement, ensuring that manufacturers and producers choose to operate in and out of Wales. The production of low-carbon hydrogen and the goods and services in the value chain present clear, large and short-term Welsh creation opportunities. Perfection is often the enemy of progress, so let's not ignore blue hydrogen production in our transition to a cleaner, greener future. Diolch, Llywydd.
