Thanks to an intervention by Therese, pig and sheep husbandry will be included as an option in the new Agricultural, Land Management and Production T-Level, which is good news for Suffolk pig farmers.
Therese pressed the Prime Minister on National Grid refusing to publish their study of Bradwell as a potential landfall site for cables and interconnectors for offshore wind instead of burdening the Suffolk coast with yet more energy infrastructure at PMQS today.
Today in Parliament, Therese asked the Energy Minister to require National Grid to fully publish their assessment so far of Bradwell as a potential landfall site for cables and interconnectors for offshore wind.
Last week, Therese visited Rock Barracks near Woodbridge (home to 23 Parachute Engineers and 28 Engineers Regiments) with fellow Suffolk MP and Minister of State for Defence Procurement, James Cartlidge MP.
Therese attended an important meeting with National Grid ESO this afternoon to press them on the scope of their comparative study, assessing the environmental aspects of Bradwell as a landing point for Sea Link with Aldeburgh/Friston.
Therese has hit out at the decision taken by East Suffolk Council’s Green/Lib Dem Cabinet this week to duck out of Sea Link discussions and instead delegate all authority to council officers.
