Proceeding contribution from Malcolm Wicks (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 27 May 2010. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Energy and Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
Energy and Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
Does my right hon. Friend agree that, although the new Secretary of State seems to wish to adopt a laissez-faire approach—"It's nothing to do with me; it's up to the industry on nuclear"—the reality is that, whether on the generic assessment of the technology, siting arrangements or deep geological disposal, one needs a Secretary of State to drive things forward? The Secretary of State talks about clarity. People wish for nuclear fusion one day. Is not the reality that we now have nuclear confusion?
