Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, if he will make it his policy to support the delivery of consented onshore wind developments in Scotland which require the implementation of a Military Radar Mitigation Scheme; and if he will prioritise seeking an immediate solution for developers and investors whose projects have paused because of associated delays.

The Ministry of Defence remains committed to working with the wind farm industry on the development of enduring technologies that will mitigate the effects to Air Traffic Control and Air Defence radars; to ensure the safety of military and civil airspace users and the effectiveness of defence operations. This commitment includes, where possible, supporting temporary mitigation measures while enduring solutions are explored by industry.
