Proceeding contribution from Albert Owen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 July 2018. It occurred during Debate on Wylfa Nuclear Power Project: Taxpayer Liability for Safety.

Wylfa Nuclear Power Project: Taxpayer Liability for Safety

I will come on to Wylfa Newydd if I catch your eye in a moment, Mr Robertson. I just wanted to say that the statement that the hon. Gentleman read out from the previous chief executive of National Grid has been put to bed by the new one. Indeed, even the previous chief executive said that we needed centrally located energy sources, or baseload, to continue. The hon. Gentleman has taken a very small quote from a very long statement from a previous National Grid chief executive. Current National Grid policy is certainly that nuclear is strong baseload.
