Many of my colleagues on this side of the House have been asking for some time when we will see the legislation on wind farms. Communities up and down the country are extremely frustrated at so-called promises that we would see it the next week or the week thereafter. It is not coming. I advise the Government to publish the proposed legislation so that communities can discuss it and consider where we are going with this because it is quite a big issue throughout the country.

I understand that EU rules require public consultation to take place first. This will take place in March or April. It is a precursor to the legislation.
