HL Deb 11 April 2002 vol 633 c120WA
The Lord Bishop of Hereford

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What calculations they have made of the likely loss of income from tourism in mid-Wales if the proposed wind turbine power station at Cefn Croes were to be built. [HL3588]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of Trade and Industry (Lord Sainsbury of Turville)

None. There is no concrete evidence that wind turbine power stations discourage tourism; on the contrary, in some cases, they become an attraction in their own right.
