Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps the Government is taking to ensure an equitable allocation of funds between England, Scotland and Wales from the Floating Offshore Wind Manufacturing Investment Scheme.

The balance of funding across different parts of the UK, worth up to £160 million, will depend on the assessment of applications that the Government receives.

Any funding awards will be based on a project’s ability to demonstrate value for money and its ability to meet the strategic objectives of the scheme.
