Written question asked by Sarah Jones (Labour) on Wednesday, 21 February 2024, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Friday, 23 February 2024. It was answered by Andrew Bowie (Conservative) on Thursday, 29 February 2024 on behalf of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero.
Nuclear Power Stations: Cumbria
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether her Department has had recent discussions with (a) Sellafield Ltd and (b) the Nuclear Development Authority on its plans for nuclear power developments at Moorside.
- Answer
-
Moorside is a candidate for new nuclear and one of a number of potential sites that could host civil nuclear projects. Whilst Great British Nuclear is working with government to support access to potential sites, no decisions have been made at present. In the case of Moorside, it would be natural for the site’s location adjacent to Sellafield to be factored into any decision.
