The exchange is below:
Martin Vickers (Cleethorpes, Conservative)
"My right hon. Friend and the Government have been working hard to attract inward investment into northern Lincolnshire and the Humber region, with considerable success, but these efforts could be undermined by further delays to the application by Able UK. May I urge the Prime Minister to respond to the requests from the leader of North Lincolnshire Council and the Humber Local Enterprise Partnership to intervene to ensure an early determination of the application, well before the December deadline?"
David Cameron (Prime Minister; Witney, Conservative)
"I have spoken to my hon. Friend and his Humberside colleagues on a number of occasions about this very important investment. We all want to see the Humber estuary become a real magnet for investment, particularly green energy investment, so I am very happy to look at the issue that he has raised with me—he has raised it with me before—and particularly at the planning permission, with, of course, the responsible council."
