Government supports the plans for a stadium in Cornwall. It would be a great boost to tourism, the local economy and help encourage more people to play and watch sport. The current private sector proposal is very strong and we hope will be successful subject to planning permission. Planning decisions are a matter for the local Council which will report in due course.
