CONSTRUCTION OF WIND-FARM OFF THE COAST OF MARYPORT

Motion Text

That this House notes with interest that TXU Energi are planning to build an offshore wind-farm off the coast of Maryport; recognises that companies like Pecheney, Corus, Tubros and many others in West Cumbria have all the skills, resources and expertise to support the building of the wind-farm; and calls on TXU Energi to give a commitment to use local firms where possible in the construction and servicing of the project.
