Our LEP’s view on Hinkley C hold up

“Hinkley Point C – UPDATE

Posted: 29 July 2016

Following the news of EDF’s final investment decision on Hinkley, we urge the government to make a quick decision in support of the project. The Hinkley investment and its legacy will have a major benefit for the economy of the surrounding communities and the wider UK for decades to come and is truly transformational.”

  1. Generally speaking, the primary legacy of a nuclear reactor is an increased level of background radiation – providing no accidents happen then although increased it should be at an acceptable level (unless of course improved scientific knowledge decides that the safe level is lower than existing standards).

    But of course if thereis a nuclear accident, then the lasting legacy will be very different.

  2. Why is not a name at the bottom of this LEP statement ? As an unelected business quango with vested interests, Who is he speaking for ? Why are they putting pressure on the government ?
