Debate

Renewable Energy: Job Creation

Contribution

Mr Speaker, perhaps if I start, the hon. Member for Strangford (Jim Shannon) could finish. In order to safeguard renewable jobs and to create new ones, will the Minister consider a specific project that has hydro-turbine manufacturers such as Gilkes in Kendal, and many others around the country, working alongside our farmers to make use of streams, becks and rivers that go through farmland to create renewable industry and, indeed, new jobs?
