Nuclear Energy (Financing) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Greg Hands (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 3 November 2021. It occurred during Debate on bills on Nuclear Energy (Financing) Bill.

Let me finish responding to the first intervention first. I was reading the 1997 Labour manifesto the other day. We remember those days when they came in as “new Labour”, and their manifesto said:

“We see no economic case for the building of any new nuclear power stations.”

The right hon. Gentleman has been here a long time, so perhaps he would like to say why he was a backer of the 1997 Labour manifesto.
