A decision by the UK government on the future of nuclear development in the UK, and in particular the future of the sites at Wylfa and Trawsfynydd in north Wales, is urgently needed, a Welsh parliamentary committee has said.

The Economy, Trade and Rural Affairs Committee said in a report that a positive decision for Welsh nuclear sites will create the conditions for business confidence, directing government funding and focus, building resilient supply chains and upskilling the workforce.

It called on the UK government to set out when it will confirm the designated sites for future nuclear projects, the kinds of technology to be deployed, and the timeframes for implementation.
