Proceeding contribution from Philip Dunne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 February 2009. It occurred during Debate on Welsh Affairs.

Welsh Affairs

The Secretary of State has been regaling the Chamber with the work that the Government are doing to try to help preserve jobs for private sector entities, but would he reassure the House that he has put in the maximum effort on Government-owned agencies? I am thinking of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, which has been determined to press ahead with the closure of the Wylfa nuclear plant, despite the vigorous efforts of the local MP, the hon. Member for Ynys Môn (Albert Owen), who is in his place. He has tried to intervene with the Secretary of State to keep that power plant going to preserve jobs in the area.
