Wind Power: Scotland
Asked by: Lord Ravensdale (Crossbench - Life peer) Tuesday 28th July 2026 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the report by Aurora Energy Research, The Future of Scottish Wind Development, published on 2 June, particularly its finding that increasing Scottish onshore wind capacity after 2030 as part of the Strategic Spatial Energy Plan could help to reduce energy system costs by £5 billion a year. Answered by Baroness Curran - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) The National Energy System Operator (NESO) is delivering the first Strategic Spatial Energy Plan (SSEP). This will consider the cost optimal types and locations of future energy infrastructure including onshore and offshore wind - whilst also factoring in environmental, societal, and other spatial interests. |

Wind Power: Scotland
Asked by: Lord Ravensdale (Crossbench - Life peer) Tuesday 28th July 2026 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to represent Scottish onshore wind within the Strategic Spatial Energy Plan. Answered by Baroness Curran - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) The UK, Scottish and Welsh Governments jointly commissioned NESO to produce the first Strategic Spatial Energy Plan for Great Britain. It will identify potential zonal locations; types of generation and storage needed for a secure and affordable energy system.
Scottish onshore wind will be considered alongside other eligible technologies, accounting for technical, economic, environmental and societal factors. |

Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood
Asked by: Lord Ravensdale (Crossbench - Life peer) Friday 4th September 2026 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of updating the statutory child death review process to include sudden unexplained death in childhood reporting. Answered by Baroness Merron - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care) We recognise the devastating impact of sudden unexplained death in childhood on affected families and communities.
The Child Death Review (CDR) process was established in 2008 so that the deaths of all children would be systemically reviewed to identify learning and support bereaved families. A Child Death Overview Panel examines the circumstances of each death, identifies learning, looks for patterns and potential improvements in services, and makes recommendations aimed at preventing future deaths. Families are assigned a key worker to guide them through the CDR process and help them access appropriate support and services.
The Department is working to update the statutory CDR guidance in due course. |
