Dee Harbour

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport by what date he expects to finalise the Dee Harbour Revision Order for publication.

Answer: The Planning Inquiry for this application and a separate application for Mostyn Docks were held in 2005, as there were overlapping provisions between the two applications. Following the inquiry some matters of fact on jurisdiction were raised and considered in 2009 and 2010, and needed to be concluded before a decision could be made.We are considering whether we can proceed on the basis of the evidence considered at that inquiry or whether we need to conduct further consultation.
