Lord Callanan (Con)
I am not familiar with those particular circumstances; I would be happy to chat to the noble Earl about it.
Lord Morgan (Lab)
My Lords, is this not an opportunity for further investment in west Wales, which by comparison with east Wales, which is closer to the English border, has suffered considerably in economic investment in recent years?
Lord Callanan (Con)
There are opportunities with the energy transition for investment in all communities throughout the UK, including, of course, in Wales. There are considerable investments in north Wales, and I mentioned some of those in south Wales as well. It is perfectly possible that onshore wind projects are being taken forward in west Wales, but I am not familiar with that particular area.
