Consultation on this proposed area is now open and we seek your feedback on the area and how offshore wind could share the area with other users and interests. Your feedback will help inform the Minister’s decision on whether the proposed area is suitable for offshore wind energy.

We encourage your feedback through a submission in our Have Your Say portal. Submissions close at 11:59 PM on 31 January 2024. For the Minister to consider your submission, it must be provided through the Consultation Hub by this deadline.

A number of supporting documents are available on the Have Your Say portal. These provide information on the offshore wind consultation and declaration process, as well additional information on the area.

Our team is hosting five community drop-in sessions in Bridport, George Town, Devonport, Burnie and Whitemark where our team will be happy to discuss the proposed area and answer any questions you may have. There is no formal presentation at these sessions, they are designed to enable the community and other stakeholders to drop in at any time throughout the session time to have their questions answered. Details of these sessions are below:
