(asked on 4th July 2018) - View Source
Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what will be the process for the local community to access the Hinkley Point C Community Fund once it becomes operational.
This question was answered on 12th July 2018
The then Minister of State for Energy's 2013 Written Ministerial Statement states that Community Benefit for Hinkley Point C is not due to begin paying out until the plant is generating electricity, scheduled to be 2025.
We are currently looking at the implementation of Community Benefit, including the process for accessing payments.
