Proceeding contribution from Robert Goodwill (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 June 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Carbon Dioxide Reduction Target.

Carbon Dioxide Reduction Target

Is the hon. Gentleman honestly trying to say that if we do not reduce the number of nuclear power stations, we will not take a massive 20 per cent. step back in emissions from electricity generation? Surely he cannot genuinely maintain his party’s position on replacing nuclear capacity and try to make out that reductions will occur? Without more nuclear capacity, there will be increases, not reductions.
