Proceeding contribution from Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 January 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL].

Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL]

I certainly accept that the noble Baroness, Lady Byford, was not suggesting Hinkley as the only site, but at least two of the sites are on the Severn. That would create the same grid problems, particularly as Scotland has counted itself out. Even if you accept the economic case, which I do not, or the energy efficiency case, which I do not, the number of sites is limited.
