Debate And Vote On Nuclear Power

EDM number 1564 in 2005-06, proposed by Jenny Willott on 06/02/2006.

That this House notes the consultation under way over future energy policy; further notes the considerable amount of public concern over the possibility of building a new generation of nuclear power stations across the UK; further notes the huge importance of such a decision in terms of prudence over public finances, security of energy supply, climate change, public health, environmental protection and national security; further notes that such a decision will have a long-lasting impact and represents a major crossroads in UK energy policy; believes that such an extraordinary decision must be legitimised by a strong element of democratic accountability; and calls on the Government to give Parliament a full debate and vote on whether or not to build a set of new nuclear power stations before any final decision from the Government is made.

This motion has been signed by a total of 67 MPs.
