Pembrokeshire County Council is looking to secure a stronger economic future for the county with the approval of the Celtic Freeport final business case on Thursday 3rd October.
The Freeport represents a new opportunity to help Wales continue to develop a globally competitive, inclusive and sustainable economy.
Deputy Leader Cllr Paul Miller, cabinet member for Place, the Region and Climate Change, said: “Approval on Thursday will represent the next step in our journey to delivering the Celtic Freeport.
“The Celtic Freeport is part of our close collaboration with both UK and Welsh Governments and is designed to create the right conditions for investment and growth both here in Pembrokeshire and across the South West Wales region.
“The scale of the opportunity ahead for the Milford Haven Waterway and for Pembrokeshire is enormous and we are determined to ensure we maximise the opportunity this coming energy revolution offers to grow the Pembrokeshire economy, to secure investment and to create and sustain jobs.
“Nationally, the Celtic Freeport will unleash the full green industrial potential of Wales, accelerating the decarbonisation of our most carbon intensive industries and bringing new opportunities to our communities.”
The Cabinet will take place on Thursday, 3rd October at 2:00pm and people can watch via webcast.
