Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had, or plan to have, with the Welsh Government about the provision of education and skills courses to equip the workforce with the training necessary for the construction of the proposed small modular reactors at Wylfa.

In June 2025, the Government announced a new golden age of nuclear power, which is set to create thousands of high-quality jobs across the UK. As part of this, Great British Energy – Nuclear’s small modular reactor project to be located at Wylfa on Anglesey is expected to create around 3,000 jobs on site at peak construction plus thousands more across the supply chain.

The industry-led Nuclear Skills Plan will support this workforce growth and strengthen partnerships with stakeholders in Wales by launching a Wales Regional Skills Hub in 2026.
