UK Government's Energy Policy

I commend the right hon. Gentleman, because he has consistently supported the Severn barrage. Does he accept, however, that the cost to the public purse would be in the region of £34 billion? If not, what figure would he suggest? In these straitened economic times, how could the country to afford it?
