Offshore workers raised concerns over new wind energy deal
OFFSHORE workers have raised concerns over the potential effect of the government’s new wind energy plan on secure jobs.

It is the latest in a series of developments that the government says will move Britain towards reliance on low-carbon sources over the coming decade.
