Lord Clark of Windermere – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Energy and Climate Change
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Clark of Windermere on 2016-04-26.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what discussions they have had with National Grid in relation to the erection of pylons to carry power through the Lake District National Park from the proposed nuclear generation station adjacent to Sellafield.
Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth
Government holds regular discussions with National Grid across a range of energy matters. Some of these include factual updates from National Grid on its proposed major electricity transmission projects. When this occurs, Ministers and officials do not provide any views to National Grid due to the role DECC Ministers would play in the determination of any development consent applications.
