question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to his Answer of 11 July 2018 to Question 161188 on Radar: Scotland, what steps are being taken by his Department with the onshore wind farm industry to ensure that consented onshore wind developments in Scotland which require the implementation of a Military Radar Mitigation Scheme are brought forward into construction and operation.

uin	169413
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2018 answer text <p>Developers are responsible for proposing Radar Mitigation Schemes (RMS) and the Ministry of Defence (MOD) has developed a three-phase mitigation process to assist and address their aspirations. Due to the uncertainties of unproven mitigation technologies, success cannot be guaranteed where wind farms have a proven, adverse impact upon radars, impairing their performance in safety-critical operations.</p><p>To date, RMS agreements with two developers have been signed, resulting in the trial and implementation of their proposed solutions in parallel with wind farm construction. A third developer has been unable to identify a suitable mitigation solution. No other onshore developers have formally applied to the MOD for mitigation.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 11/09/2018 16:41:00 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to his Answer of 11 July 2018 to Question 162083 on Radar: Scotland, if he will (a) review the efficacy of the work of Aquila in engaging with the onshore wind farm industry and (b) take steps to ensure the timeliness of Aquila's engagements with that industry relating to the development of radar mitigation schemes.

uin	169415
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2018 answer text <p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) regularly monitors the performance of its contractors, including Aquila. To address developers' concerns and enable construction and mitigation activities to proceed in parallel, the MOD has developed a three-phase approach. Wind farm developers are not required to use Aquila for phases one (identifying potential solutions) and two (trialling) but as the MOD's supplier of Air Traffic Control services (under Project Marshall), the company must be able to operate the solution without undermining the safety of the services it is contracted to provide.</p><p>Should developers decide to contract with their own competent suppliers for phases one and two, this must be agreed with the MOD to ensure radar mitigation is provided to satisfy defence requirements.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 11/09/2018 16:40:08 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew
