Interesting that US shipbuilding capacity is being stretched to meet increasing demands.

Three of the projects are off the coast of North Wales, Cumbria and Lancashire and the other three are in the North Sea, off Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.

Together they will pay around £1 billion to the Crown Estate every year, money which can then be passed on to the Treasury.

The Crown Estate has to date awarded offshore wind rights which will see 41 GW of capacity installed in British waters. So far, 12 GW of that is operational.

Maybe useful to have a connection to this Belfast company in some way.

Surely this will be approved at the end of the month to show a joined up govt approach.

Tobias Ellwood ( Chair of Defence Select Committee ) on Times Radio this morning had nothing to say on shipbuilding but arguing that western allies needed to step up more to support Ukraine.
