My rt. hon. Friend the Secretary of State met with Jonathan Bell, her counterpart within the Northern Ireland Executive, on both the 10th and the 16th of June.

DECC officials regularly engage with their counterparts in the Executive, holding regular meetings to inform and discuss the work being undertaken on support for renewables in Northern Ireland, including in relation to Contracts for Difference, and they will continue to do so.
