The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps he is taking to ensure that Glenrothes and Mid Fife constituency benefits from nuclear decommissioning.

Answered by Michael Shanks

The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority’s (NDA) mission is to clean up the nuclear legacy. Whilst the NDA do not have a site in Glenrothes and Mid Fife constituency, the decommissioning activity of the NDA and its supply chain provide social economic benefit to areas across Scotland. The longevity of their mission allows for positive economic benefits to be realised for years to come.
