Proceeding contribution from Clive Efford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 27 July 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Annual Energy Statement.


Annual Energy Statement

In his statement, the Secretary of State said that the Government were committed to removing any unnecessary obstacles to investment in new nuclear. I assume that that is a reference to Liberal Democrat policy. Does he still believe it is possible to deliver a low-carbon energy supply without nuclear? Is that his policy, or has he changed his mind, and will he be in a darkened room when we debate new nuclear in future?
