Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Nigel Griffiths (Labour). It was answered on Thursday, 7 January 2010 on behalf of the Department of Energy and Climate Change.
Wind Energy
- Question
- Is the Minister concerned about the number of Conservative and Liberal councils that oppose onshore wind farms, and about the Conservative MPs who oppose offshore wind farming? Does he realise that their opposition is sabotaging the £1 billion investment in renewables by the Labour Government?
- Answer
-
The leader of the Conservatives says that we can judge what a Conservative Government would do by looking at their record in local government. They have an abysmal record of holding up and rejecting applications for onshore wind farms.
