Proceeding contribution from Lord Lilley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 23 May 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Energy White Paper.


Energy White Paper

Given the time that it takes to plan and build a new nuclear power station, and the urgency of this issue, how can the Secretary of State justify 10 years of prevarication through serial reviews and consultations? Will he tell us what was so inadequate about the previous consultations that we now require yet another one? How long will it be before the first electricity from a new nuclear power station flows into the grid?
