Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 July 2025

Debate

Great British Energy: Nuclear Development

Contribution

My Lords, I declare my interest as a chief engineer working for AtkinsRéalis. I congratulate the Government on the Sizewell C announcement, which is fantastic news for the UK nuclear industry. But, alongside that, the Government need to consider enablers for nuclear, including a secure source of nuclear fuel. Can the Government say when they plan to bring forward the date for a ban on Russian imports of nuclear fuel into the UK, as the US has done, with all the benefits that would bring for forthcoming investments in the UK, international leadership in this area and our energy security?
