Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what information he holds on where the proposed tidal lagoon power plants in England and Wales, other than Swansea Bay, are likely to be built.

The Government is currently considering the recommendations set out in the Hendry Review, including its assessment of site location for tidal lagoons. The proposed Swansea Bay project is the only project which has received a Development Consent Order. The Hendry Review considers other possible sites; none of these have entered the planning process.

A Government response to the Hendry Review will be published in due course.
