The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, when he plans to make a decision on the application for East Park Energy Solar Park.

Answered by Michael Shanks

This is a live planning application that is currently under independent examination by the Planning Inspectorate; it would not be appropriate to comment further. I would encourage anyone with an interest to register with the Planning Inspectorate to share their views.
