I welcome the recent news that representatives of the company have confirmed their plans to invest in re-opening a holiday park on the site and look forward to receiving more details in due course.
Future Wales, our National Development Plan for Wales, identifies Prestatyn as part of the North Wales Coastal Settlements regional growth area and states these settlements perform important functional roles within their region, including being key centres for employment, services, tourism, retail and culture.
As noted in my response earlier this month [Does the Welsh Government support the former Pontins Prestatyn site remaining designated for hospitality use? (WQ94250)], the Welsh Government remains committed to supporting Denbighshire County Council, as the owner, to ensure that the Pontins Prestatyn Sands site can once again have a positive impact on the local and regional economy.
Future Wales states that Tourism is an important sector to the economy across the North. It states that opportunities to support coastal resorts and attractions and new outdoor and active facilities should be supported.
I commend the pace at which Denbighshire County Council has established a dedicated team to facilitate development and planning matters. My officials will continue to support the Leader and his officers in taking this promising proposal forward.
