Proceeding contribution from Lord Darling of Roulanish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 11 July 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Energy Review.


Energy Review

The system that we have in place should ensure that we have viable generating companies. The hon. Gentleman referred to problems in the past that, as I said earlier, largely stemmed from the fact that successive Governments did not pay enough attention to the true economic costs of generation, especially nuclear power. The system that we have now is far more robust than the system we had then.
