Proceeding contribution from Simon Hughes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 July 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Electricity Market Reform.


Electricity Market Reform

The introduction of emissions performance standards is a welcome new policy, but may I ask the predictable follow-up question? Will the Secretary of State confirm that coalition Government policy says that nuclear power stations will be built only if there is no public subsidy, which means no greater subsidy for them, irrespective of subsidies that are given to other parts of the energy industry?
