Oral Answers to Questions

Tom Hayes Excerpts

Tuesday 4th November 2025 Commons Chamber

[Rachel Reeves]

[Tom Hayes (Bournemouth East) (Lab)]

How will the Government help to fund the green infrastructure that we need, as through the coastal energy partnership that I helped to set up in Bournemouth, with Great British Energy taking on early stage project development and the National Wealth Fund making those critical long-term investments?

[James Murray]
