Proceeding contribution from Joan Ruddock (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 January 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Security of Supply.


Security of Supply

I know how scrupulous my right hon. Friend is in other presentations, and I am sure that his remark that nuclear contributes one fifth of our energy was a slip of the tongue. I think that he might have meant to refer to our electricity generating capacity. In terms of primary energy, of course, nuclear contributes around 7 per cent.
