Question to the Wales Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what discussions they have had, and intend to have, with the Welsh Government about nuclear power in Wales.

The Government is committed to new nuclear as part of the UK’s future energy mix and although a reserved matter I am keen to work with the Welsh Government to ensure where we can deliver on new nuclear in Wales. Officials from my department and the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy regularly engage with officials from Welsh Government on nuclear in Wales. I am keen to ensure discussions continue on areas where we are jointly affected.
