The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, when he will publish a decision on the AQUIND Interconnector project.

Answered by Michael Shanks

The Secretary of State continues to follow the process stated in his letter of 12 July 2024 to AQUIND Limited and the Ministry of Defence regarding considering the MOD’s representations. The 12 July 2024 letter and further updates can be found on the Planning Inspectorate’s website for the AQUIND Interconnector planning application. There is no statutory deadline for determining this application.
