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


Energy White Paper

No. All nuclear power stations will be decommissioned at some stage. Scotland has two nuclear power stations, due to be decommissioned in 2011 and, I believe, 2023. Torness was the second last nuclear power station to be built in this country, Sizewell being the last. My point was that the nationalists’ position seemed rather contradictory, and I think that the Conservatives north of the border agree.
