12th Nov 2024
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what role North Wales will have in helping the UK reach it's 2030 energy targets.

Following NESO’s advice on 2030 Clean Power, the Government will publish a Clean Power Action Plan later this year, which will set out how we can deliver our ambition. The resources of North Wales already play a key role in delivering clean power, including through the Gywnt Y Mor offshore windfarm, and the Government is committed to working with the Welsh Government to deliver on our national missions and serve the people of Wales.

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment she has made of the adequacy of the performance of Avanti West Coast trains from stations in north Wales.

The Secretary of State is clear that the performance of Avanti West Coast (AWC) on its North Wales route is not good enough with passengers facing too many cancellations and delays. Poor Network Rail (NR) infrastructure reliability has also contributed significantly to the disruption felt by passengers.

The Secretary of State met with the Managing Director of AWC and the NR West Coast South Route Director to challenge them on poor performance and demand immediate action to deliver urgent improvements. Officials continue to meet regularly with AWC and NR as part of a relentless focus on improving rail performance, bringing together track and train, and holding both sides accountable.

Simon Lightwood
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
