Energy Bill

First, I take issue with that final statement. If there was ever a massive release of CO2 from one of the carbon storage places, it would be catastrophic. Secondly, the Liberal Democrat position might be to discourage nuclear energy. If these two chapters had been phrased in a distinct way, I could understand it. My position and that of my hon. Friend the Minister is that we see nuclear energy as having a positive and benign role in fighting climate change. So, in those circumstances, the two chapters should be written on a more even keel.
