It seems as though it was approved once, but now they have raised the bar of how strong the case needs to be to build over a SSSI - I think in recent years the Welsh Government are trying to force themselves to consider the longer term and not just short term gain, and once an SSSI is built over it is one forever.
That said i hope it does go through and that the business case is compelling enough to overrule the damage to the SSSI.
I was surprised that one of the plane included a 15 storey building, surely that will just sink into the swamp around there
