Summary
Sixteen workers at the Porth Wen solar farm in Anglesey were arrested on suspicion of illegal working after immigration officers visited the site on March 20. The visit followed a referral notice sent to a subcontractor working on the project. The solar farm, approved in 2017, had faced local opposition. EDF, the project developer, stated that they are working with contractors to review processes and implement stricter measures.

Rhun ap Iorwerth, the MS for Anglesey, expressed concern over the failure to ensure proper documentation for workers and the lack of local benefits from the project. The solar farm is expected to power over 15,500 UK homes annually, but local opposition to solar projects has been growing. The Home Office emphasized its crackdown on illegal working as part of efforts to combat organized immigration crime.
