PUBLIC MONEY FOR NEW NUCLEAR POWER STATIONS

That this House welcomes the words of the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change that no public money will be used to finance new nuclear power stations; and calls on him to explain what is meant by the term no public money, in particular by clarifying whether it includes the 1.6 billion per annum paid from the public purse to the Nuclear Decommissioning Agency, the donations made to international nuclear research and promotional bodies, including the International Atomic Energy Agency, the EU's Euratom nuclear agency and to national bodies, including the National Nuclear Laboratory, the Nuclear Academy and the Nuclear Institute, the costs of additional anti-terrorism measures necessary if new nuclear power stations are built, and not otherwise required to protect non-nuclear energy installations, and the underwriting by the Government of the insurance liabilities of nuclear power stations or increases in fuel bills attributable to construction of new nuclear power stations.
