Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what steps they are taking to ensure that the Navitus Bay wind park scheme does not adversely affect the tourism industry in Dorset, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight and its contribution to the local economy and employment.

It would not be appropriate to comment on the proposed project given the Planning Inspectorate’s examination ahead of the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change’s eventual decision.
