Hitachi made the commercial decision to suspend, not to cancel, the Wylfa Newydd project. We will continue to work with Hitachi to decide what the next steps will be for the project and the site. Nuclear has a strong history in North Wales, and Wylfa Newydd is an attractive option for new nuclear projects.<\/p>

On 19 October 2018, the Low Carbon Contracts Company (LCCC) announced that it had terminated the contract for difference awarded to Station Yard CFD 1 during the second Contracts for Difference (CfD) allocation round in 2017. Station Yard is a 0.05MW Advanced Conversion Technology with Combined Heat and Power project located in Llangadog, Carmarthenshire. The project\u2019s contract was terminated because it failed to make sufficient progress towards meeting its milestone requirement to demonstrate a commitment within one year of signing a CfD to deliver the project. It is estimated that had Station Yard been commissioned it would have received support of less than £70,000 (in 2017/18 prices) for electricity generated over the 15-year period of its contract.<\/p>
<\/p>
A CfD is a private law contract between a generator and the LCCC, a government-owned company. CfDs are managed independently by the LCCC and decisions as to whether a generator has met its milestone requirement are for the LCCC. The milestone requirement is a contractual requirement. Failure to meet this requirement may result in a CfD being terminated.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government is not aware of any other renewable energy projects in receipt of funding from CfDs or other UK Government schemes that have been cancelled in Wales during this time period.<\/p>

The Government provided the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) with £20 million in HM Treasury\u2019s autumn budget for 2019/20. This will ensure the CMA has the resources to prepare for EU exit, and includes funds to fulfil its new role in the enforcement of State aid rules. This funding is in addition to the £23.6m allocated for 2018/19, which specifically included £3.3m provision for the CMA to prepare for its State aid function.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government is working with the CMA to ensure they are ready to deliver a robust and independent State aid regulatory function at the point it is required and has every confidence in the CMA\u2019s ability to do so.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4487", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Kelly Tolhurst"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Rochester and Strood"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Kelly Tolhurst"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-01-28", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-01-28T17:36:45.257Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "201"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-01-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Competition and Markets Authority: Finance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether additional funding will be made available to the Competitions and Market Authority to fulfil its new role in the enforcement of state aid rules.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4425", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jo Stevens"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Cardiff Central"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jo Stevens"} ], "uin" : "211803"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1047093", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1047093/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
In October 2018, my rt. hon. Friend the Prime Minister announced a package of measures to make the workplace fairer for people from ethnic minorities, including a Race at Work Charter.<\/p>

<\/p>
The Prime Minister also announced a consultation on mandatory ethnicity pay reporting by employers with more than 250 employees, to help tackle burning injustices in society and build a society that works for everyone.
